Automation & An Insider’s Perspective on Shark Tank w/ Martin Hill
The latest jobs numbers are in and unemployment is still at five percent. The scary thing is… it may soon ratchet upward. To kick off this week’s episode, Marc discusses the advances being made in automation – and how robots could ultimately displace millions of workers. It’s not all bad, of course; some of this technology will indeed be life-changing. But there are lots of heavy implications.
Later, Marc welcomes entrepreneur and inventor Martin Hill to the podcast. If you’re a fan of the ABC show Shark Tank, you may have seen Martin pitching his product The Beebo. (He was ultimately funded by guest Shark Ashton Kutcher.) Martin talks about his experience on Shark Tank, as well as what it’s like trying to get a new product off the ground.
