  • Episode 10: Borg vs. Skynet and the Real AI Threat - A Conversation with Matt Konwiser, Part 2
    2025/07/24

    What happens when intelligence becomes a commodity? In our eye-opening two-part conversation with IBM Field CTO Matt Konwiser on AI Diatribe, we dive deep into the real-world impact AI is already having on jobs, the economy, and society as a whole.

    Part 1 explored the current disruption: 85 million jobs expected to be displaced by year's end, major companies scaling back entry-level hiring, and the growing conversation around Universal Basic Income. We broke down which jobs are most vulnerable and why the "lowest rungs of the career ladder have just been cut out."

    Part 2 takes you further down the rabbit hole, examining AGI timelines, the risk of humans becoming "doom-scrolling zombies," and practical advice for adapting to our AI-driven future. From insider perspectives on enterprise AI adoption to why we should fear becoming the Borg more than Skynet, this conversation gets real about what's coming.

    Whether you're worried about your job security or curious about humanity's next chapter, this conversation will change how you think about AI's role in our lives. No tech jargon, no hype - just honest insights about the transformation that's already underway.
