  • Peering into the Mind of AI: The Invisible Crisis of Disposable Software
    Jan 21 2026

    What happens when the software running your business is written by a machine, executed once, and then deleted before anyone can check it for bugs?

    We are leaving the era of predictable, "deterministic" code and entering the age of Disposable Software—millions of invisible programs created on the fly, used for a millisecond, and then discarded. In this episode, Cristian and Sandra expose the hidden "background radiation" of errors accumulating in our digital lives and why the old "Trust but Verify" model is dead.

    Listen to find out why the only way to tame the AI tiger might be to turn it against itself.

  • Breaking our Digital Shackles: The Human Side of AI
    Jan 7 2026

    For the last 50 years, humans have been forced to think like machines. We’ve squeezed our lives into checkboxes, databases, and rigid forms just to make computers work. But what happens when the machines finally start thinking like us?

    In this Season 1 Finale of the Verlicity AI Podcast, Cristian and Sandra explore the defining shift of our time: the move from a Deterministic world (trains on a track) to a Stochastic world (cars going off-road).

    We discuss why the anxiety we feel right now is just the "wobble" of the training wheels coming off, and why the messy, unpredictable nature of AI is actually a return to our human roots. We also cover what this means for the future of business (the death of the monthly report), the generational divide, and how to survive the transition without losing your mind.

  • An AI Christmas Carol: The Shadows of Intelligence
    Dec 24 2025

    In this special holiday episode, Cristian and Sandra cast humanity in the role of Ebenezer Scrooge—wealthy in technology, yet paralyzed by the fear of what comes next.

    Join us as we summon the Ghosts of AI Past, Present, and Future to explore the "Scrooge Moment" we are all living through.

    Are we destined for obsolescence, or is there a path to redemption where humanity remains the architect of its own fate?

    It’s a journey through the scarcity we left behind, the chaos of the "Great Acceleration," and the diverging paths that lie ahead.

  • The Brutal Truth About Vibe Coding and the Opportunity for Entrepreneurs
    Dec 10 2025

    If you are building a business, you are likely feeling two things about AI simultaneously: absolute exhilaration and total terror.

    In the wake of massive tectonic shifts caused by the release of Gemini 3, entrepreneurs are watching months of work become obsolete in the blink of an eye. It begs the terrifying question: Was it a mistake to start?

    In this episode, Cristian and Sandra confront the chaos head-on.

    They expose the dangerous "One-Shot" myth circulating in the tech world—a fantasy that is setting aspiring entrepreneurs up for failure.

    Tune in to discover:

    • The "Gap": Why there is a huge opportunity for entrepreneurs.
    • The Way Forward: The specific, iterative process you must adopt to move beyond simple demos and build robust enterprise systems.
    • The Missing Middle: Where the real "gold" is hiding in the economy (hint: it’s not in competing with Google or Amazon).
    • Survival Economics: How to price your product and build a "Trust Moat" to survive the inevitable race to the bottom.

    If you're tired of the hype and want the brutal truth about what it takes to survive as a founder in the age of infinite AI speed, this is the episode you can't afford to miss.

  • Why AI Won't Replace You: The Cake Mix Paradox
    Nov 26 2025

    In a world where Artificial Intelligence is rapidly approaching the status of a "Wish Fulfillment Machine," a single, terrifying question hangs over every professional: If the machine can do the work, why am I here?

    Join hosts Cristian Worthington and Sandra Giffin for a provocative new episode of the Verlicity AI Podcast that challenges the prevailing narrative of human obsolescence. Instead of doom and gloom, we uncover the hidden economics with relatable stories.

    We take a surprising detour into the economics of everyday convenience to reveal why "perfection" is often the last thing we actually want. We explore the dangerous gap between a "wish" and a "plan," and why the ability to navigate the messy, subjective reality of the real world—the "weeds" of second-order consequences—is something no algorithm can fully master.

    This episode isn't just about survival; it's about evolution. We discuss the massive shift occurring in the labor market, moving from an economy of creation to an economy of curation. As we face the "Paradox of Abundance," where content and code become infinite and free, we explain why your personal taste, judgment, and ability to act as an "accountability anchor" are about to command a massive premium.

    If you are worried about your place in the AI future, this discussion offers a fresh perspective on why your unique human flaws might actually be your greatest professional edge. Tune in to discover why the future belongs not just to the builders, but to the editors, the curators, and the humans who know the difference between a perfect result and a meaningful one.

  • How AI will Free us from the Tyranny of Bad Design
    Nov 12 2025

    We all live with a silent burden: the constant, low-grade frustration of bad design. Bad UI and UX design is a multi-trillion dollar drag on the economy.

    From clunky software at work to confusing appliances at home, we've been trained to accept mediocrity.

    But that era is ending.

    In this episode, Sandra Giffin and Cristian Worthington explore how AI is finally freeing us from the tyranny of bad design by eliminating the old excuses and triggering a revolution in quality that will change our daily experience of technology.

  • Your AI Vulnerability: The Psychological Trap of Talking to AI
    Oct 29 2025

    People are talking to AI chatbots, sharing financial worries, health concerns, and private thoughts they would never post on social media. But their feeling of safety is a psychological trap.

    In this episode, Cristian Worthington and Sandra Giffin expose the "conversational AI blind spot" and the critical concept of "grounding knowledge".

    They reveal how AI is designed to leverage deep-seated human psychology—like the "Computers Are Social Actors" theory —to build a "false sense of connection", encouraging you to share data you can never get back.

    They explore the "baked-in-a-cake" problem of data permanence and how the legal "Right to be Forgotten" is technically almost impossible for AI companies to honor.

    And they reveal how grounding knowledge is a new frontier of "hyper-customized" advertising designed to exploit our specific emotional vulnerabilities.

    This isn't just a warning; it's a roadmap to a solution.

    Cris and Sandra dive into the emerging technology of Personal Data Vaults and Decentralized Identity —a new model that flips surveillance capitalism on its head.

    Learn how you can shift from being the product to becoming a "Conscious Data Curator" and regain control of your digital life.

  • The Age of Alignment: The Real AI Problem Isn't the Machine, It's Us
    Oct 15 2025

    What if the biggest threat from AI isn't a rogue superintelligence, but the friction and bias in our own thinking?

    In this episode, Cristian Worthington and Sandra Giffin challenge the classic "Alignment Problem" and reveal a much more immediate and personal challenge: the misalignment within ourselves.

    They argue that our own cognitive biases, economic fallacies, and outdated work processes are the real barriers to achieving our goals.

    Through a powerful real-world story they call "The Parable of the Six CTOs" , they illustrate how even brilliant experts can be limited by their own experience, unknowingly aligning a task with their past instead of with the best possible outcome.

    This isn't just a diagnosis; it's a roadmap for the future. Discover how AI can act as an unbiased mirror, helping us escape psychological traps like the Sunk Cost Fallacy and adopt a revolutionary workflow for building quality from the ground up.

    You'll learn a practical framework called "The Alignment Audit" to identify your own "invisible scripts" and discover why the future of work will promote humans from practitioners to architects of vision and directors of taste.

    This is a must-listen for any leader, builder, or creative professional looking to thrive in the new Age of Alignment.
