The age of intelligent machines is here, but it's raising one urgent question: Who gets left behind?
In this episode of Human and the Machine, Cien sits down with Andy Ayim MBE, a visionary investor, culture builder, and advocate for diverse entrepreneurship. Andy has spent his career challenging systems that weren’t built for everyone, whether by backing underrepresented founders or reshaping how global brands think about their teams.
Together, they dive into the hard truths about AI, work, and leadership in a world moving faster than ever.
- How do we stay human in an AI-powered world?
- Are we designing a future that includes everyone, or one that leaves people behind?
- What do leaders need to unlearn to keep people, not just machines, at the heart of progress?
- Will AI amplify inequality, or can we use it to build a fairer, more inclusive future?
This isn’t just another conversation about AI. It’s a call to action for leaders, entrepreneurs, and anyone navigating an uncertain future.
