Shane Mitchell is the CMO at Ontech Group, with over 30 years of experience in technology across startups, advertising, and mobile applications. Shane has contributed in advisory roles across many businesses in the tech industry.
In this episode, Shane discusses how AI is redefining human work rather than simply displacing it, emphasising that automation is upgrading, rather than erasing, our work. Shane explores the nature of work, particularly in knowledge-based industries, and the misconception that automation is a "clean handover" where a machine completely takes over from a human. Finally, the episode addresses the ethical dilemmas surrounding the introduction of humanoid robots and the crucial need for robust regulatory and ethical frameworks to guide the development of AI.
