Meet Aishik Das and hear why he chose the Master of Science in Finance (MSF) program at Boston University’s Questrom School of Business. For Aishik, studying finance at Questrom offered the opportunity to turn his background in economics into hands-on experience, while living and learning in Boston, one of the world’s leading finance hubs. From financial analytics and an app-building capstone project to integrating AI into coursework, the MSF program gave him opportunities to apply what he was learning to real-world challenges. Just as important was the experience beyond the classroom. Through networking opportunities, connections with professors and classmates, and life in Boston, Aishik found a community that supported his growth both professionally and personally.

Every few months, it seems that another tech CEO predicts that AI will do many of our jobs in the future. But if companies eventually replace too many workers with AI, will there be enough people left with a paycheck to continue buying goods and keep the economy going?  In this episode, Katty Kay talks with Professor Gerry Tsoukalas, who recently co-wrote a paper with Professor Brett Falk titled "The AI Layoff Trap." They built a mathematical model to game out just how bad an AI layoff wave could get — and whether anything can actually stop it. According to their model, many companies may see this firing-your-customers trap coming and walk into it anyway. 00:00 The AI Layoff Trap  01:08 Explaining The Trap 02:09 How It Happens 03:14 Driving Towards The Cliff 04:34 What Can We Do?  05:39 CEO Self Restraint  07:00 A Tax On Firing  08:00 The Worst Case Scenario 09:03 Optimistic or Pessimistic?
