Early AI proxies can already write updates and handle simple back-and-forth. Soon, they will join calls, resolve small conflicts, and build rapport in your name. Many will see this as a path to focus on “real work.”


But for many people, showing up is the real work. Presence earns trust, signals respect, and reveals judgment under pressure. When proxies stand in, the people who keep showing up themselves may start looking inefficient, while those who proxy everything may quietly lose the trust that presence once built.


The conundrum

If AI proxies take over the moments where presence earns trust, does showing up become a liability or a privilege? Do we gain freedom to focus, or lose the human presence that once built careers?This podcast is created by AI. We used ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google NotebookLM's audio overview to create the conversation you are hearing. We do not make any claims to the validity of the information provided and see this as an experiment around deep discussions fully generated by AI.
