AI isn’t storming the gates of education — it’s swimming quietly across the moat.

In this episode of What Teachers Have to Say, Jake unpacks how the traditional moats that once protected education — content, pedagogy, and institutional processes — are quietly eroding as AI reshapes the landscape. Inspired by a thought-provoking LinkedIn post by Steven Bartlett (FlightStory, Thirdweb, The Diary of a CEO), Jake explores how these shifts parallel what’s happening in business and asks:

👉 Are we ready for what comes next?

We’ll explore:

  • Why content has become a commodity — and what that means for the teacher’s role.
  • Why sticking to scripted programs and pacing guides won’t protect schools — and how real expertise is more critical than ever.
  • What new moats schools must build to stay relevant — from fostering authentic community to mentoring students in ways AI can’t replicate.

But that’s not all. Jake also teases insights from his upcoming book with Dave Burgess Consulting, The Skills that Last: Preparing Students for an Unpredictable World, highlighting how curation, critical thinking, and mentorship are the key skills that will future-proof education.
