Full Episode
We're going to look at the last year and the next, let's say, two to three years as probably the most defining periods of workplace technology change that we'll ever live through. What would happen if many parts of your business, you could start to do things in an hour or two hours that would have otherwise taken a week?
Which parts of your business do you expect to disappear or become unrecognizable in the next 12 months?
I think actually very few roles will sort of disappear kind of outright. I think it's what we will be doing in those roles that will fundamentally shift. We should have three, five, 10x more leverage as individuals inside of an organization. Everything that we do will be accelerated.
How should we think about a world of resourcing when agents start to appear and become more reliable?
In that world, the IC is now a manager, and there's sort of no upper limit of how many agents they could be deploying. Then the question is, what is that manager of human managers of agents? What do they do? Should they also be managing agents? Open question. I mean, this is in the category of things that will change in a five-year period that might redefine 100 years of management science.
I mean, it's super complicated because you have model releases every two weeks right now. The velocity is extremely fast.
It's this incredibly... exciting stressful crazy time but for those that enjoy learning and changing and evolving how they work this is a very exciting time to be diving into that
Today, I'm really delighted to have Aaron Levy, the CEO and founder of Box as my guest. Box is a company, a product that I first came across, I reckon 20 years ago, before it had the .com domain. It was one of the first cloud storage companies in the world. Of course, now it does much more for enterprises.
And Aaron has been leading a transformation of Box into an AI-first company, both for the company itself and for its customers. And Aaron, you've been really public. about the benefits that AI will bring to all of us. If Box is fast becoming an AI-first company, which part of your business do you expect to disappear or become unrecognizable in the next 12 months?
