The A.I. Invasion Survey

In order to ensure our readers always know how their peers are spending time, money, and personal capital (status, baby), we constantly run peer surveys. Our current peer survey looks at how members of the oat milk elite are handling (or mishandling) AI in the workplace while waiting for the other metal shoe to drop.

Results will be shared with Upper Middle Research Members and survey participants. Thanks for sharing

What We Believe


➼ It’s possible to acknowledge and enjoy privilege.
➼ It’s fun to compete... right up until it isn’t.
➼ It’s all gucci even when it isn’t Gucci. 
➼ It’s not a joke, but you’ve got to laugh. 
➼ It’s a fugazi. It’s a whoozy. It’s a whazy.
