EP 51: Digital Education First: Building an AI-Ready Society

In this episode of the Skynet Chronicles, Tim sits down with Chang, an expert in generative AI and executive education, to explore what responsible AI adoption really looks like in 2026. Chang shares how businesses have shifted from cautious curiosity to “think big, start small” action plans, and why a playful, lifelong-learning mindset is often the fastest route to genuine capability building. Together, they dig into practical wins organisations can make right now, from using AI to turn meetings into clear actions, to rethinking how time is spent across teams. The conversation moves into the bigger societal questions too: what happens to meaning and identity when roles are automated, how education can evolve faster than traditional curricula, and why keeping humans “in the loop” still matters, especially when accuracy, trust, and accountability are on the line. _________________________________________________________________The Skynet Chronicles Podcast is brought to you by Project Rising (AI Consultancy & custom implementation, based in Peterborough UK) | Hosted by Tim Davies. https://projektrising.ai#podcast #AI #AIpodcast #artificialintelligence
