Will AI take your job? Pranav Jajapur has a clearer answer than the headlines. In this episode of AI Made Simple, Carmen Skipworth talks with the founder of Prospexia OS, an AI diligence platform for venture investors, about how AI is reshaping hiring, coding, and marketing without replacing the humans behind them. From a hiring platform that throws out the resume entirely to why AI-generated content fails to convert, Pranav brings a grounded, insider view of what AI can and cannot do. Calm, practical, and refreshingly honest. Human-Led. AI-Powered.

GUEST

Pranav Jajapur — founder of Prospexia OS, an AI diligence platform for venture investors. Through an enterprise strategic partnership with Try Ikigai.ai, he also helps companies staff smarter by matching talent to roles based on fit, intent, and values. His background spans sales and venture capital, where he performed diligence on early-stage startups at a $3 billion firm.

SUMMARY

Carmen sits down with Pranav Jajapur, who goes by PJ, to unpack his journey from solar sales to venture capital and the two AI ventures that grew out of it. PJ explains how Try Ikigai.ai replaces the resume with a simple audio conversation, turning unstructured rambling into a structured dossier that employers use to ask better interview questions. The conversation moves to the big fear: will AI make jobs obsolete? PJ's answer is that jobs evolve rather than disappear, and the people who integrate AI tools will be held to a higher standard. He shares why vibe coding hits a wall without real expertise, why AI-generated marketing content converts at a fraction of human-made content, and how he uses different AI tools for different jobs. His simplest advice: treat AI as a thinking partner to bounce ideas off, not something that runs your life.
