Disrupt: Do workers have good reason to be afraid of AI, Euan Blair?
Euan Blair is training people for the AI age. In the podcast, he talks about transformation, the right further education - and what he has learned about leadership as the son of former Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Euan Blair, the founder of Multiverse, a leading European learning-focused company, asserts that those who claim we shouldn't worry about job losses due to artificial intelligence are naive. The warning from CEOs of major AI companies has become a recurring theme, predicting a job apocalypse. Yet, board members are faced with a dilemma: to secure their company's future, they must adopt new technologies and reassure their employees that they remain indispensable in the future. Even when these concerns are justified.
Blair, an entrepreneur like his father, Tony Blair, former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, is not only concerned about these challenges from an entrepreneurial perspective but also from a political standpoint. In the Handelsblatt Disrupt podcast series, host Larissa Holzki converses with Blair about the necessary upskilling, what hinders transformation in many companies, and what he learned about leadership from his father.
