In this AI marketing podcast episode, Dan Sanchez kicks off a new experimental series titled "Own the Show," joined by co-host Ken Freire. Together, they lay the foundation for what will become a book, starting with the urgent problem it aims to solve: the looming AI-driven job displacement. They unpack the coming shift, citing reports from the IMF and World Economic Forum predicting that over 60% of jobs in advanced economies will be affected by AI. This episode isn’t just about the threat; it’s a rallying call for marketers to embrace AI, reclaim their human edge, and rise as thought leaders to future-proof their careers.
