420. AI Automation, Layoffs, and the Monetization of Loneliness
In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde connects Amazon’s recent layoffs and AI/automation push to everyday life—how task automation is reshaping hiring, local economies, and the culture of work. He also unpacks the rise of loneliness in a more screen-mediated world and the booming business that monetizes it—from creator DMs and OnlyFans to AI companion apps—then shares practical steps on how to future-proof your skills, efficient budgeting on “comfort spending,” and rebuilding real connection at work and at home.
