In Episode 2 of The Whole Future Podcast, Andy, Jared, Max, and lead pastor Jim Mullins of Redemption Church-Tempe dig into the questions most business podcasts are afraid to ask — what happens to faith, family, and human connection when AI can be your therapist, your companion, and possibly your pseudo-god?
They unpack why computer science degrees are collapsing for the first time in a decade, how AI companionship is quietly replacing human relationships for millions of people, and why autonomous vehicles and humanoid robots aren't a distant future — they're already here. But beneath all the data is a deeper conversation about identity, purpose, and what it means to raise kids and lead teams in a world moving faster than we can process.
In this episode:
- Why undergraduate computer science enrollment dropped 8% — and what it signals about the future of education
- AI companions, digital relationships, and the slow erosion of human connection
- Is AI becoming a pseudo-god? Faith, meaning, and the search for answers in a tech-driven world
- Autonomous vehicles and robo-taxis — Jensen Huang, Elon Musk, and hundreds of millions of self-driving cars within 5 years
- Humanoid robots and what leaders should actually be preparing their families for
- How to set green light, yellow light, red light boundaries with AI before it sets them for you
