In this episode of Mindblowers, Daniel Kafer speaks with Dalibor Petrovic, founder of the Summit Leadership Alliance and former Senior Partner at Deloitte, about the structural consequences of AI-driven automation. Together, they explore whether UBI is a realistic solution, what happens during the messy middle of economic disruption, and how leaders should prepare for the turbulent decade ahead.
This is not just a debate about welfare policy. It is a discussion about:
• AI replacing jobs
• Automation and wage pressure
• The future of work
• Economic restructuring in the age of AGI
• The implementation gap between technology and institutions
• How governments and companies respond to mass displacement
As AI amplifies productivity and displaces certain roles, societies face a fundamental question: how do we maintain stability during rapid transformation?
Dalibor brings experience from Deloitte’s Global CIO Program and his work advising organizations on AI strategy. Daniel frames the conversation around the broader macro shift shaping the next decade: acceleration, amplification, and adaptation.
If you are a CEO, policymaker, investor, or strategist, this conversation will help you understand:
– Whether Universal Basic Income is economically viable
– What risks mass automation creates
– Why the “messy middle” may be the most dangerous phase
– How leaders can prepare before disruption peaks
The next decade will be turbulent. But it will not be hopeless.
The real question is not whether AI is coming.
It is whether our systems evolve fast enough.
