Be Happy, Kevin's Here!

from Big Questions with Cal Fussman · host Cal Fussman

Everybody's telling you that AI is coming for your job. Kevin Surace is here to tell you what they're not telling you. Kevin's the father of the artificial assistant. A CNBC Top Innovator of the Decade. He's the holder of more than 90 patents. And now he's the author of The Joy-Success Cycle – a book that is going to make you happy. Kevin has spent decades watching new technology arrive, and he's never once seen it destroy more than it creates. The headlines may chase the 90,000 jobs lost to AI. Kevin's counting the 364,000 jobs that didn't exist three years ago. That's because they didn't have "AI" in the title at the time. Cal makes a case that the coming labor shortage nobody's talking about is a much bigger story than the layoffs everybody is. Kevin has the numbers to prove it. So be joyful. In 30 minutes you're going to see the world in a new way.
