About this listen
Episode 9 unpacks a long conversation between Stephen Bartlett and Tristan Harris warning that AI is not just a tool but a structural power shift that can replace human labor, judgment, and institutional memory without guardrails.
The episode explores the ethical, legal, and HR implications, mass displacement of entry-level roles, lack of enforceable constraints, and the need for AI impact assessments, human-in-the-loop rules, and liability attachments.
It balances technical detail with emotional stakes: grief over lost stewardship, a call for agency over doom, and practical policy steps to govern AI responsibly rather than reject technological progress.
