AI Rebels

Up-Skilling the Nation: Mike Spaeth on AI’s Race Against the Skills Gap

24 Jun 2025

Description

AI power-broker Mike Spaeth doesn’t mince words: if we fail to reskill fast, automation will wipe out one in five jobs. He points to Texas’s Alpha School, where AI squeezes a whole school day into two turbo-charged hours—proof that the education rulebook is already being torched. Spaeth calls out companies hoarding the “time dividend,” insisting that every minute saved by bots must be plowed back into people or productivity gains will evaporate. He cites Malaysia’s nationwide up-skilling blitz and even recommends Karpathy’s two-hour language-model primer, turning lofty ideas into a step-by-step survival kit. Stick around to the final beat, when the crew dares you to hit replay in 2035 and judge whether we chose equity—or let AI widen the divide.
