Caleb and Adriele work through several AI stories from the week and the aftermath of the Supreme Court affirmative action decision on legacy admissions before digging into the botched rollout of X (R.I.P. Twitter). Then, they dive deep on Gallup research into the state of the global workforce, asking the question, what can leaders do about quiet quitters? They give advice for managers and a map out a helpful model for one-on-one meetings.
