In this episode of Founder Talk, Jason Krantz, founder of Strategy Titan and Labor Titan, pulls back the curtain on what’s actually happening in the world of technology, education, and work. Jason’s built companies that live at the intersection of data science, human behavior, and business strategy — and he’s not afraid to call out the hype.

You’ll learn:

✅ Why most AI pilots fail before they start

✅ How to spot the difference between hype and innovation ✅ Why the education system is built to serve itself, not its students

✅ What skills, mindsets, and strategies will still win in an AI-driven world

✅ How to future-proof your business and career by thinking differently

If you’ve been wondering “is AI a bubble?” “is college still worth it?” or “how will automation change my job?” — this episode will open your eyes. It’s not fear-mongering. It’s the truth about where we’re headed — and how to lead when everything changes.
