Listen "No Human Need Apply!"
Episode Synopsis
Shopify's CEO Toby Lutke has implemented a radical new hiring policy that could foreshadow dramatic workplace changes. Teams must now "assume AI, prove the need for humans" – demonstrating that artificial intelligence cannot adequately perform a job function before justifying human hires. This raises profound questions about who determines when AI is insufficient and what metrics should evaluate human necessity. As an e-commerce platform helping businesses leverage technology, Shopify appears to be applying the same efficiency-focused approach internally.
