Is AI About to Replace Entire Companies?

In this episode, you'll learn whether artificial intelligence can take over or replace an entire company, focusing on Y Combinator's 2025 call for startups to build full stack AI businesses. It's a shift from just making AI tools to creating companies powered entirely by AI. We explore what this means for traditional industries and why so-called "dinosaur" companies may be at risk of extinction. We also discuss the massive opportunities and urgent challenges facing business leaders: from regulatory hurdles to the societal impact of replacing human jobs. Finally, we look at what that means for future-proofing your organization, including running “shadow” AI companies or retraining teams for this next disruption.
