Will AI Take Your Job — Or Just Your Degree's Value?
Description
The scariest part of AI isn't the robots — it's the quiet way it's rewriting what your skills and your degree are even worth. In this clip we get into it.
Malcolm and Thomas sit down with guest Jayson Johnson — a Howard-trained engineer — to break down AI's real impact on the job market, education, and how we learn. They get into the hard questions: is your job actually secure, does a traditional degree still hold the value it used to, and how do you adapt to AI tools before they adapt around you? They also get into the uncomfortable part — the ethics of how big corporations and capitalism are steering all of this.
