Ep 10: Is the 2028 AI Crisis Real? Ft. Travis Good x Ben Fielding x Bailey Wang

On February 23rd, 2026, Citrini Research published The 2028 Global Intelligence Crisis, a macro memo predicting AI agents taking over white collar jobs with the S&P down and mass unemployment. We debate whether this piece has substantial systematic risk or just common doomer fiction that underestimates how slow corporate adoption actually is. Three AI CEOs take on this matter head-on featuring Travis Good (CEO, Ambient), Ben Fielding (CEO, Gensyn), Bayley Wang (CEO, PrismaX).•••About Gensyn:Gensyn is building decentralised compute infrastructure for AI training and inference at scale. The protocol enables global GPU owners to contribute computational power to machine learning workloads through cryptographic verification, making AI development more accessible and cost-effective while reducing dependence on centralized cloud providers.Find Gensyn on X.•••About Ben Fielding:Ben Fielding is the CEO and Co-founder of Gensyn. He focuses on building verifiable compute protocols that democratize access to AI infrastructure, addressing supply-demand dynamics in machine learning markets, and creating economic incentives that align decentralized compute networks with real-world AI development needs.Find Ben on X.•••About PrismaX:PrismaX develops AI-powered robotics solutions for physical labor automation. The company addresses disruption across all labor categories, not just white collar work, by creating tools that help people transition from repetitive assembly and cleaning tasks to higher-value work while maintaining earning opportunities through expert annotations and supervision of robotic systems.•••About Bayley Wang:Bayley Wang is the CEO of PrismaX. His work focuses on how AI and robotics can serve as equalizers in labor markets, enabling workers to create more value in less time while addressing the ethical challenges of physical automation and ensuring displaced workers have pathways to new earning opportunities in the AI economy.Find Bayley on X.•••Hosted by Travis Good, CEO & Co-Founder of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ambient⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: an SVM-compatible PoW L1 that will serve as a cornerstone of the agentic economy. Ambient has raised $7.2M from a16z, CSX, Delphi Digital and Amber Group. It is 10x more efficient than incumbent crypto AI systems. Ambient believes AI is money and is working to democratize it.
