Technology is only half the story. The human side of AI, how people adapt, lead and grow alongside it, is what determines whether Hyperautomation actually delivers. This episode puts that human side centre stage.
Hosted by Davy Kenis, this AE podcast puts one of the most pressing questions of our time to four guests who are living it every day: is AI threatening our jobs, or are we simply not ready for it?
Nicky Dries, Professor at the Future of Work Lab (KU Leuven), unpacks what makes today's AI wave fundamentally different from earlier technological shifts and which jobs are already feeling the heat.
Jonas Maeyens, CEO of Highsail, shares how his company built an AI platform for field technicians across industries and what he learned when the technology finally met reality on the ground.
Koen Van Loo, CIO at Groep S, zooms out to the labour market: why young people are finding it harder to find their footing and who bears the responsibility for preparing them.
Keeping the conversation sharp throughout is Jo De Bruyne, change management and transformation specialist at AE.
