This week we look at how A.I. is affecting jobs. As companies start announcing A.I.-related job cuts and experimenting with customer service bots, economists are placing bets on whether A.I. will lead to major gains for companies and workers. Some are even predicting it will help rebuild the middle class.

Then, the multidisciplinary artist and filmmaker Paul Trillo joins to talk to us about his experience as part of a select group of testers granted early access to Sora, OpenAI’s video generation tool. And finally, Kevin explains what happened when a Microsoft developer stumbled on a huge cybersecurity breach.

Today’s Guests:

• Paul Trillo, multidisciplinary artist, writer and director
