@ChrisIsOnTheAir - Your New Coworker Is… a Robot?

About this episode

Chris dives headfirst into the accelerating AI revolution—comparing today’s transformation to the Industrial Revolution, where massive job loss eventually gave way to massive reskilling. But this time, the speed is unlike anything we’ve seen before. New reporting shows the job market is shifting toward AI skills fasterthanuniversitiescan keepup. Traditional computer-science programs are shrinking while AI majors explode nationwide, as students gamble their entire futures on the only tech field still growing. Then: the home robot era just got real. Chris breaks down “Memo,” a new household robot that can make espresso, clear plates, and even load your dishwasher, trained by a high-tech “Skill Capture Glove.” It’s impressive, but it also raises major questions about cost, access, and what happens once robots take over chores. Finally: digital-only influencers are landing huge brand deals with fully scripted personalities and fictional backstories.
