Can AI Make Us More Human? - Future of Work Podcast

Why are fast-moving teams moving away from full-time hires? In this episode, we speak with Yakov Filippenko, founder of Intch, a platform connecting professionals through intent-based, AI-powered networking. Yakov shares how part-time and project-based work is no longer a fallback option — it’s becoming the smart, strategic choice for startups, lean teams, and even big companies looking to stay flexible. We talk about the shift in mindset post-layoffs, the rise of global talent through nomad visas, and how hiring today is less about résumés and more about solving real business problems. From AI bias in recruitment to the hidden value of “non-traditional” candidates, this episode explores what hiring looks like when we stop playing by outdated rules.

Piers and Andrew chew the phat and agree we're in an AI bubble which could burst at any moment. POP! We ruminate on the future of work and which jobs are stayers in the new paradigm; how AI has shifted employment, not destroyed it. We get esoteric in the uncanny valley of deep fakes, artificial muzak and alien art. We discuss AI's integration into kids' education and the need for guardrails, especially given the tragic suicide of a US teen allegedly egged on by an AI chat bot. We reckon AI needs control and has definite limitations, but should be a force for good.
