ABOUT THIS EPISODE
August 6, 2026: I look at why more than a third of U.S. employers are handing out flat "peanut butter raises" even as top performers use AI to do more. Then I get into new data showing workers' share of U.S. economic output has fallen to the lowest level on record, raising a bigger question: if AI makes people more productive, who gets the gains? Finally, I unpack LinkedIn's move to reduce AI slop and why polished AI-generated work is becoming a real credibility problem inside companies.
