BBC Scotland – AI Job Fears

  • 03/03/2026
  • BBC Radio Scotland

Andrew appeared on the Connie McLaughlin program to talk about job loss fears thanks to the rise of AI tools.

In this BBC Scotland segment, AI expert and Digitally Curious author Andrew Grill explains how AI is really changing the world of work — and why it’s more about task loss than total job loss.

We discuss:

  • Why AI will change tasks, not necessarily entire jobs
  • How to think of AI as an intern or graduate whose work you always check
  • Why training AI on your own trusted data is a game-changer
  • A simple prompt hack: “…and justify your answer”
  • How staying digitally curious can help you protect and future‑proof your career

If you’ve been worried by headlines about a “global jobs collapse,” this conversation offers a more grounded, practical view of how to work with AI instead of fearing it.
