AI has been feared for a long time, with concerns that it will make humans irrelevant. However, history has shown that every time we automate something, we also create new value. The same will happen with AI. It may work faster than previous automation, but it will also create new industries and opportunities. AI is a linear thinker, which means it can connect existing dots but not invent new ones. Humans excel at lateral thinking, which is essential for creativity and innovation. AI will complement and support In this episode, Tom explains that AI is a "mirror" that helps us understand what it means to be human, and that we often underestimate humanity's ability to adapt and create new value. He argues that AI will not make us irrelevant, but rather accelerate our evolution and force us to rediscover our purpose and potential as thinkers, dreamers, and creators. Ultimately, our ability to imagine and create what doesn't yet exist is what makes us human and valuable, and no machine can ever take

Tom Koulopoulos dives into autonomous “agent-based AI”—advanced digital workers capable of managing projects, making decisions, and negotiating contracts. Major players like OpenAI and Salesforce are driving this trend, with open-source options opening doors for smaller businesses. Tom interviews Jack Crawford, who references Colonel John Boyd’s “OODA loop” to explain how these AI agents can drastically accelerate decision-making. They explore the potential of AI-driven code development, administrative tasks, and strategic problem-solving, noting that widespread adoption may happen within months. While it raises questions about job displacement, Tom and Jack agree that, ultimately, humans will focus on higher-level innovation and value creation alongside these new digital coworkers.
