Podcast: AI-Curious with Jeff Wilser
Published On: Thu Apr 16 2026
Description: What if the job you have today will soon require a completely different set of skills? In this episode of AI-Curious, we talk with Dan Roth, Editor in Chief of LinkedIn, about what LinkedIn’s data reveals about the future of work, the rise of AI literacy, and why deeply human skills may matter more than ever. We dig into LinkedIn’s “Skills on the Rise” research, what employers are actually looking for now, and why the shift toward skills-based hiring is changing how people get hired, promoted, and evaluated.We also explore the surprising rise of storytelling, public speaking, conflict resolution, and stakeholder communication in an AI-driven workplace. Along the way, we discuss why traditional resumes and polished cover letters may matter less in a world where anyone can use AI to sound impressive, and why some companies are moving toward live prototyping and real-time problem solving in interviews instead.Later, we get into AI agents, what Dan is building himself, and how leaders can create stronger AI adoption inside their companies. We also talk about what it takes to stay competitive in a job market where AI is changing the stack of work, but not necessarily replacing the worker.GuestDan Roth — Editor in Chief, LinkedInFollow AI-Curious on your favorite podcast platform:Apple PodcastsSpotifyYouTubeAll Other PlatformsFor anyone interested in Jeff’s AI Workshops for their company:Reach out directly at jeff@jeffwilser.com
