  • Love the “AI and the Future of Work” Podcast

    Love how Dan is leading the conversation with his guests, and also the topics are educational and informative instead of just typical marketing.

    Thanks for providing such a fruitful platform.

  • Mostly good episodes, far too trusting of government

    I’ve really enjoyed these podcasts. There’s a great variety of content and perspectives, some a little dry, some fascinating and informative. Dan is a great host… mostly.

    In a recent interview with former FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler, most a very good interview, Dan seemed to be heavily in favor of government regulation of AI. Tom even mentioned that the sudden turnaround of major AI companies (after years of opposition) being open to regulation as a “bright spot”.

  • 10/10 Will Keep Listening

    Each episode is full of valuable information with no fluff. I always walk away from them having learned something new and certainly a broadened perspective. I think the host does a great job at perfectly timing his questions as to let the guest fully get their point across. Certaily worth of subbing

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

409: Ryan Gavin, CMO at Slack: AI Is Single-Player. Slack Is Betting on Multiplayer
Q: How do you start that conversation with someone who feels like AI just inherently is an adversary, and they're being crowded out of this conversation by a few billionaires or trillionaires that increasingly own access to these opportunities?
Gavin says he cannot predict what work will look like in five or ten years, but creativity, curiosity, and a desire to learn will remain valuable. He argues that AI tools can give small businesses and individuals capabilities once available mainly to large organizations.
409: Ryan Gavin, CMO at Slack: AI Is Single-Player. Slack Is Betting on Multiplayer
Q: How do you think about the role that Slack is playing in facilitating rather than preventing human to human collaboration?
Gavin says work is fundamentally multiplayer and Slack can bring AI agents into the conversations and collaboration where people already work. Slackbot can use permitted workplace conversations and connected data to help people collaborate and retrieve information.
410: Johanna Jackman, Chief People Officer at Freshworks: Responsible AI Isn’t Slow. It’s Bold, With Human Judgment
Q: What was his job search like? What would you attribute his success to?
Jackman says her son Josh used a focused, structured approach: he chose an industry and target companies, assessed workplace culture and managers, used LinkedIn and personal networks, and completed the full interview process. She encouraged him to help others find opportunities after he landed the job.
410: Johanna Jackman, Chief People Officer at Freshworks: Responsible AI Isn’t Slow. It’s Bold, With Human Judgment
Q: What does responsible use of AI mean to you?
Jackman says AI should be used boldly to inform decisions, but leaders must retain judgment and accountability, especially when decisions affect employees. She stresses transparency about AI use, data, potential bias and who is accountable.
402: Russ Fradin, CEO of Larridin, on the AI Power User Gap and Why Change Management Is the Real Bottleneck
Q: How do you address change management in very large organizations?
By pushing consistent, actionable guidance to managers and learning & development teams, mapping what trailblazers do, and creating practical steps for the broader workforce to increase AI productivity.
