In this episode of How I AI, I’m sharing key updates, must-know AI news, and a personal reflection on what I would do differently if I were starting my AI journey today.

You’ll hear about a powerful research paper on the future of work with AI agents, why the U.S. government just invested hundreds of millions into AI companies, and the viral YouTube interview that breaks down which jobs are at the highest risk of automation.
