**Welcome to The Public Figure Society,** the podcast where we imagine, strategize, and philosophize about the future we want to create. We are living in unprecedented times—institutions are crumbling, the gatekeepers no longer hold the keys, and we have become the architects of not just our lives but also the changemakers of society with a simple swipe or follow.

Today, we are all public figures in a society where AI is no longer just a tool; it has become an integral part of our lives, taking over tasks and automating in ways that push us into leadership—whether we are ready or not. As AI steps in as our taskmaster, we are thrust into taking ownership of our personal brands, decisions, and influence like never before. But with this newfound power comes the challenge of balancing visibility and privacy in a world where influence is currency.

This podcast is dedicated to exploring these shifts, providing insights and practical tools to help you navigate this new era with confidence. We'll engage in thought-provoking conversations with inventors, innovators, and trailblazers who are rewriting the future and redefining influence in this revolution of change. But it's not just about the experts—it's about everyday people who are embracing these changes, stepping up, and finding their unique place in this new world.

Everyone has something valuable to contribute, and together, we can rewrite the future.

The episodes will focus on:

❖ The Visionaries Leading the Shift – Learn from leaders driving transformation across industries.

❖ The Technologies Powering Change – Gain insight into AI, robotics, tools, and tactics that are reshaping productivity, communication, and influence.

❖ Strategies for Thriving as a Public Figure—Discover practical frameworks, tools, and actionable insights to adapt, show up authentically, and succeed in digital and real-life spaces.

Through in-depth conversations and real-world examples —ranging from CEOs and entrepreneurs to technologists and academics—we uncover the patterns, trends, and tactics that redefine leadership in this connected world.

Join us as we dive deep into the role of the changing role of public figure, master the art and science of influence, and discover how to rewrite our future.

AI or Die: The Collapse of White-Collar Work and Rise of Digital Companions

In this episode, I sit down with Matthew Burkett, co-founder and director at Ceop Pro AI—an AI-powered executive operating platform that delivers strategic insights in just 48 hours, ten times faster and at a fraction of the cost of traditional consulting. With over 30 years of leadership and innovation experience, Matt is passionate about making AI-powered decision-making accessible to every business leader.

We talk about how AI isn't just changing the way we work—it's rewriting the rules of society. We explore how AI is transforming business intelligence, becoming a powerful assistant, and even evolving into something more personal: a companion, a mentor, maybe even something spiritual. We unpack what this means for the collapse of white-collar roles, the future of education, and how to stay relevant in a world that's automating everything except meaning. This isn't a trend—it's a turning point.

Key Takeaways:

AI is cutting the time and cost of business reporting dramatically
Executives are using AI to automate high-level tasks and strategic decisions
AI can now match our communication style and learn our unique tone
We're seeing AI shift from being a tool to becoming a trusted partner
There's a real conversation happening about trust and belief in AI systems
White-collar work as we know it is being automated out of existence
Education is next unless it transforms to meet this moment
Personal productivity and growth are now accelerated exponentially by AI
Those who master AI tools will dominate the next job market
This moment belongs to people who move fast and stay sharp
