Public Figure Society Podcast
Hosted by Torund Bryhn · EN
The Public Figure Forum explores the biggest question of our time:
Are we being lifted up or pushed down by AI?
As artificial intelligence reshapes our jobs, routines, and society, the extremes dominate the conversation, from doomsday fears on one side to the optimistic hype that AI is the panacea.
In the middle are the leaders, innovators, and citizens trying to keep up and asking: What kind of world do we actually want to live in?
This is a public figure forum that brings together top thought leaders, philosophers, business executives, AI engineers, builders, and policymakers. We go beyond headlines to examine the real issues that matter:
- We go inside the startups, boardrooms, and minds that are building the future of AI.
- We examine the politics, regulations, and governance battles shaping our lives.
- We explore how businesses manage and use AI.
- We dived into culture: how is AI changing how we think, lead, and relate to one another
All in service of one mission: how do we create a human-first society in the age of AI?
Join the conversation that matters.
Thoughtful dialogue for those who want to understand, influence, and build a better future, together.

Blue-Collar Millionaires: The Great Skill Inversion
Jun 2600:48:29Tap to summarizeThis week, I had the privilege of interviewing Neal Hanlon, my mentor, friend, and futurist, about the rapid evolution of AI and what it means for the future of work. Together, we dug into how AI has reshaped white-collar jobs since 2013 and why blue-collar skill sets will only become more valuable as automation continues to advance.Neal and I explored the mindset shifts that leaders and professionals will need to make to thrive in an AI-driven economy, from embracing creativity and strategic thinking to cultivating self-leadership and adaptability.We also discussed the critical role of policy and education in preparing for this transition, recognizing that policy must catch up with the pace of innovation.This is a bold, future-focused conversation that urges listeners to embrace continuous reinvention, leverage AI as a productivity partner, and recognize that hands-on expertise will shape the next generation of wealth and influence.Key Takeaways The Creativity Premium In a world where AI handles execution, the golden ticket belongs to those who can dream up what needs executing. Strategic thinking and creative problem solving become the ultimate differentiators.White Collar Extinction Event Entire industries built on processing information are about to discover they're competing against machines that never sleep, never err, and cost pennies per hour.Leverage or Perish AI isn't replacing humans. It's replacing humans who don't use AI. The winners will be those who turn these tools into productivity superpowers, not those who pretend they don't exist.Self Leadership Revolution Nobody's coming to save your career. The new economy rewards those who take radical ownership of their skill evolution and stop waiting for permission to reinvent themselves.The Blue Collar Gold Rush Physical skills are about to become digital gold.
