Ep 6. AMA Episode: Agency Jobs, Sycophant AI, and Data Snake Oil

No guest this week, just Shiv and Myles answering listener questions in their first-ever mailbag episode. And the questions got deep.

• Will agency jobs disappear or are we headed back to a Mad Men era?
• What does a fully AI-enabled agency actually look like (and which ones are about to fail)?
• How do you trust AI to build client profiles when ChatGPT is basically a sycophant telling you everything's brilliant?

Your hosts unpack this and so much more.

Then things get existential: How can we tell if AI is speeding up good judgment or slowly eroding it? And what AI workflows do Shiv and Myles actually trust enough to use every day at U of Digital?

Shiv confesses his secret Claude projects, Myles admits his "workflow" is just opening another browser tab, and they both tackle whether we should be measuring the quality of human judgment before worrying about AI making it worse.

Plus: synthetic audiences, B2B data garbage, and why anti-sycophancy technology might be the thing nobody's talking about.
