AI That Makes Us More Human

Toby and Chmiel continue last week’s conversation on human ingenuity with a founder who’s putting it to the test. Katherine von Jan (KVJ to those who know her) joins the pod to talk about her new venture, Tough Day, and its mission to unlock the best of human potential in an AI-saturated workplace. As a longtime ON_Discourse member and former Salesforce exec turned startup founder, KVJ has a sharp perspective on where AI helps, where it hurts, and why the future of work depends on not automating away what makes us human.

• Lessons KVJ carried from big tech leadership into startup building in the AI era
• Why today’s obsession with scale blinds us to the micro-moments that define good work
• A challenge to AI founders: build tech that makes people better, not just faster
