"Where do you see yourself in five years?" used to be an easy interview question. With the AI job-apocalypse headlines flying around, it's a much harder one to answer now.
This week is a solo one. No guest. I'm sharing a talk I gave last week on the gap between what the media says AI is doing to jobs and what the data actually shows on the ground.
I get into:
✳️ Why paying for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot puts you in the top 0.8% of the world, and how early that means we still are
✳️ The OpenAI and Anthropic numbers showing AI could handle most finance tasks while only about a third of that shows up in real use
✳️ What's really behind the headline tech layoffs, and why it isn't AI productivity
✳️ The 63% drop in junior finance hiring across Europe, and the quiet damage that does to your 2036 leadership pipeline
✳️ A five-minute aged-debtor report I built live in Claude, and the one question that beats "where can we cut?"
