This week we're sharing an AI conversation many executives are afraid to have. Our guest, Peter Guagenti, CEO of agentic platform and AI agent builder, EverWorker, is one of those rare voices willing to say what others won't: "AI will replace jobs”. Perhaps surprisingly, he goes on to explain why that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
While many in the industry underestimate or downplay AI's capabilities, Peter speaks plainly about what he's seeing happen right now in businesses across multiple industries.
Peter has been at the forefront of enterprise AI adoption for nearly a decade. Before EverWorker, he was President of TabNine, a pioneering AI code assistant, and he’s held leadership roles at major data infrastructure and dev tools companies including Cockroach Labs.
What you'll hear Peter share in this episode:
- Why job replacement fears are missing the bigger picture
- Which "boring" businesses are actually leading early AI agent adoption
- Skills you need to successfully implement AI for automation in any business
- Why Peter calls AGI talk "nonsense" and what leaders should focus on instead, and
- The one thing about AI's future that genuinely worries him most.
Peter has a gift for cutting through the hype with plain talking, concrete examples and practical insights in an easy to understand way.
This is a refreshing and informative conversation for anyone wanting a glimpse into early adoption of AI agents and much more.
Enjoy this conversation with the plain-speaking and savvy Peter Guagenti.
