  • AI Today: From Browsers to Therapy, Factories, and the Future of Work
    Sep 29 2025

    Episode Summary: In this episode, we explore four groundbreaking AI developments reshaping work, finance, mental health, and professional productivity. We start with Fellou’s Agentic Browser, a tool that transforms the browser into an autonomous partner, then dive into AI factories revolutionizing high-frequency trading. Next, we examine the promise and perils of AI therapy apps amid a patchwork of state regulations. Finally, we discuss OpenAI’s GDPval benchmark, measuring AI’s real-world impact on knowledge-intensive jobs. Join us as we uncover how AI is not just augmenting tasks but redefining the very nature of work, decision-making, and human-AI collaboration.

    What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

    • How Fellou CE reimagines the browser as an active AI partner, shifting users from doing work to directing outcomes.
    • The role of AI factories in accelerating trading, reducing latency, and enabling scalable, governed machine learning workflows.
    • The regulatory challenges and potential benefits of AI therapy apps for mental health, including lessons from research-backed solutions like Therabot.
    • Key insights from OpenAI’s GDPval benchmark, showing which knowledge-intensive roles are most exposed to AI and how AI may augment—or transform—white-collar work.

    Key Quotes from the Episode:

    • “Measuring AI by minutes saved misses the point. AI should be a cognitive lever that expands how we think and create.” – Dominic Xie, Fellou CEO
    • “AI factories aren’t just about speed—they provide traceability, transparency, and fairness, essential for regulatory compliance and fraud prevention.” – Kathy Lange, IDC
    • “Not everybody who's feeling sad needs a therapist, but for people with real mental health issues, telling them ‘here’s a bot’ is a privileged position.” – Kyle Hillman, National Association of Social Workers
    • “White-collar work, long assumed safe from automation, is increasingly vulnerable—but AI may augment rather than replace humans, reshaping productivity and professional services.” – OpenAI GDPval report
