The Diary of a CEO: Mo Gawdat’s AI Warning for the Next 3 Years

AI may not destroy humanity on its own — but human decisions could make the risk real. In this condensed version of The Diary of a CEO, Steven Bartlett speaks with former Google executive and AI whistleblower Mo Gawdat about artificial intelligence, job automation, AI regulation, and the ethics of technology. We break down his warning that the first major disruption will hit entry-level white-collar jobs, from call centers to analysts, and why the bigger danger may be a hiring freeze that blocks career paths. Gawdat also explains how autonomous weapons, economic inequality, and unchecked AI alignment failures could reshape business, national security, and society by 2027.
