Andrew Ng co-founded Coursera, built the founding team at Google Brain, and has taught roughly 8 million people AI. In this episode, he pushes back on the AI job panic making the rounds this year, walks through the actual math on how much of a job AI can automate, and explains why he thinks universities are still teaching students for a job market from 2022. He also gets specific about what he looks for when hiring marketers, recruiters, and ops people now — and admits that despite building his career on AI education companies, AI is currently terrible for learning. 📩 Follow my Newsletter: https://siliconvalleygirl.beehiiv.com/p/your-first-autonomous-agent-in-20-min-5429?utm_source=spotify&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=futureproof-sub&utm_content=first-agent 𝕏 : https://x.com/siliconvalleymm 🔗 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/siliconvalleygirl/ 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marinamogilko 📌 My Companies & Products: https://Marinamogilko.co
