Future Ready Leadership With Jacob Morgan

August 12, 2026: I look at Stanford's updated Canaries in the Coal Mine research, which finds young workers in highly AI-exposed jobs are falling behind while experienced workers are holding up. Then I get into Fortune's report on companies capping AI usage as token costs blow past budgets. Finally, I unpack Anthropic's plan to watermark Claude-generated output and why it raises a much bigger question about authorship: how much AI help can a document get before people stop seeing it as yours?

August 10, 2026: I look at Mark Zuckerberg's new Meta manifesto and why he's positioning open superintelligence as a direct challenge to OpenAI and Anthropic's more centralized approach. Then I get into Nissan using AI-powered cameras at its Canton, Mississippi factory to track how workers bend, twist, and move on the assembly line. Finally, I unpack WIRED's report on the rise of AI job interviews, where candidates record answers late at night and, in many cases, no human ever watches the interview.

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.

August 5, 2026: I look at the Wall Street Journal story on parents getting involved in their adult children's careers, from job fairs to calls with hiring managers. Then I get into a new KPMG survey showing interns now rank career growth above salary and work-life balance, with 93% aspiring to reach senior leadership. Finally, I unpack LinkedIn's 2026 Top Colleges list and why families should think less about prestige and more about outcomes, cost, skills, and career ROI.

I talk with Naveen Jain, founder and CEO of Viome Life Sciences and author of Counterintuitive, about why entrepreneurs should focus on big problems instead of small ideas. We get into his framework of "why this, why now, why me," why non-experts often disrupt industries, how AI is changing work and healthcare, why personalized nutrition matters, and how parents can raise kids who are curious, resilient, and willing to build.
