Q: What is Grammarly's AI Ad Trying to Tell Us?

AI used to promise better work. Now it’s starting to promise no work at all. In this episode, Josh unpacks a deceptively cheerful Grammarly ad that suggests AI can handle your tasks so you can “get back to what matters.” Cute on the surface. Slightly terrifying underneath. He connects the dots to a viral essay arguing that AI is already replacing large chunks of knowledge work—from coding to law—and asks what happens when the tools don’t just assist us, but quietly outperform us. If AI can do the job, are we being freed… or phased out? And if the future belongs to those who know how to orchestrate machines, what does that mean for everyone else?About The Job Market Sh*t ShowThe Job Market Sh*t Show: How AI Broke Hiring and What Might Be Next is an investigation into how hiring actually works now, how AI and automation have upended the process, and why the old rules no longer apply. It blends reporting, analysis, and firsthand stories from inside a labor market that’s increasingly algorithmic, opaque, and indifferent to the people moving through it—while asking what, if anything, might replace a system that no longer seems to work for humans on either side of the process.
