Today, Rich Bradbury and Matt Armitage pose the most explosive question of all and ask: AI, ya basic?

Cool don’t pay the bills. Unless you’re Richard Bradbury and Matt Armitage. After slapping themselves on the back for tapping into a Gen X zeitgeist trend – a level of self-satisfaction that only two Gen X males would consider socially acceptable  – the pair looks at a recent LinkedIn report that exposes the risks that AI poses to young graduates and the entry level positions they depend on.

In today’s episode, we explore the evolving role of market research to see what happens when artificial intelligence intersects with human insight. With fast-changing consumer behaviour and an overwhelming flow of data, timely and culturally grounded research has never been more critical for decision-makers.
