Artificial Intelligence is no longer a future concept — it’s here, and it’s already reshaping the global workforce.
In this episode of This with Krish, we break down the real truth behind AI and jobs. Not the clickbait panic. Not the Hollywood robot apocalypse. The actual data, history, faith-based concerns, and economic reality of what’s happening right now.
Yes — some jobs will disappear. But others are about to explode in value.
We talk about: • Which roles are most vulnerable to automation • Why repetitive work is at the highest risk • The skills AI can’t replace (and why they matter more than ever) • How AI is creating entirely new income paths • Why many Christians feel uneasy about AI — and why that fear isn’t really about technology • The difference between tools, purpose, and identity • How to future-proof your career without panic
This is an educational, funny, slightly disruptive conversation about work, faith, economics, and what it actually means to stay relevant in an AI-driven world.
If you’ve been wondering whether AI is a threat or an opportunity — this episode is for you.
