On our most recent episode, we reported on how tons of young people are choosing trade school over college out of fear of white-collar jobs drying up. Companies appear to be making big bets that AI can replace huge chunks of their workforces.  It seems like “go to trade school” has become the new “learn to code.”  But Dan Grossman -- professor and vice director of the University of Washington's Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering -- says the outlook isn’t so bleak for students who still want a career in tech.  On today's episode: Are reports of AI driving a “white collar bloodbath” greatly exaggerated?   We want to know what you think of the show, and what you'd like us to cover.
