After a full year of being told AI was going to wipe out jobs, the collapse hasn’t happened.
At least not yet.
Unemployment hasn’t spiked. Most people still have their roles. On the surface, the economy looks familiar.
And that creates a strange tension. You’ve heard the warnings. You’ve felt the fear. But now you may be wondering if this is just another cycle of exaggerated tech panic. Maybe AI is like email or social media. Disruptive, yes. But not something that will replace you entirely.
Most people are sitting in that uncertainty right now. Waiting. Watching. Trying to figure out what’s real.
But history has a way of hiding the earliest cracks. Before the 2008 financial crisis, unemployment numbers didn’t collapse first. The warning signs showed up in places most people weren’t looking.
So the real question isn’t whether AI has replaced jobs yet.
It’s whether we’re watching the right indicators.
Is this stability real? Or is this the calm before the storm?
That’s why we sat down with Sinéad Bovell, one of the leading futurists working at the intersection of technology and society. She has spoken at the United Nations, been in rooms with the people building these systems, and hosts a global AI series with Microsoft.
What makes her rare is that she doesn’t just understand the tools. She understands the social, economic, and human shifts they create. And she has built a career helping people see inflection points before the rest of the world fully feels them.
If we’re misreading this moment, Sinéad is the person who can show us where the cracks actually are.
This conversation takes you behind the scenes of what’s coming, what most people are missing, and the practical insights you’ll need to navigate this year and the age ahead.
