このコンテンツについて
In this episode of TechWatch Radio, Jay and Sam dive into the wave of tech layoffs hitting companies like Jack Dorsey’s Block (parent of Square and CashApp), where nearly 1,000 employees were recently let go. They unpack the rising influence of AI across industries like accounting and development — and explore whether these layoffs are financially driven or a strategic shift toward automation. Should AI replace workers or empower teams to accomplish more with the same headcount?
The conversation shifts to mental health, where AI chatbots are emerging as accessible, private, and nonjudgmental companions. Sam challenges the headlines claiming bots are replacing therapists, arguing instead that these tools are best used as helpful supplements — much like consulting WebMD before seeing a doctor. With humor, nostalgia (hello, push-button phones!), and insight, the duo explores how society — not just tech — shapes how innovations like video calling and AI therapy are adopted. It’s not about fearing AI; it’s about shaping it to serve us, not own us.
