Money and Me: Get a monthly payout for life from age 42?

Michelle Martin speaks with Arnaud Frade about the rise of “sentient startups” and whether billion-dollar one-person companies could soon emerge - even from Singapore.

They explore how entrepreneurs are already using AI beyond productivity.

Arnaud also shares lessons from building Athena, his autonomous AI panelist, and explains why blind dependence on AI could become a dangerous trap for founders.

As AI takes over more analysis and execution, the conversation asks a deeper wellness question: what uniquely human qualities will matter most for leaders at work?

Hosted by Michelle Martin.

GetSetUp are banking on older adults training their peers on their tech platform. From making new connections, to providing real flexible jobs with dignity and purpose.
