In this thought-provoking episode of AIBiz, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Andrew Bolton—Harvard-trained financial strategist, former Wall Street maverick, and CEO of TechRescue—to explore a critical question: what happens when AI and automation erode human connection? Andrew shares how his human-powered tech support company is flipping the script on AI-driven models by putting empathy back into customer service. Together, they discuss the balance between innovation and humanity, the unintended consequences of over-automation, and the urgent need to preserve empathy in our increasingly digital lives.
