Episode 67: What does the future of hiring and creative work look like in an age where A.I. can replace entire departments? Matt Wolfe (https://x.com/mreflow) and Nathan Lands (https://x.com/NathanLands) sit down with Tom Bilyeu (https://x.com/TomBilyeu), co-founder of Quest Nutrition, host of Impact Theory, and founder of Impact Theory Studios, to dig deep into how he’s revolutionized his business with A.I.—and why he may never need to hire the same way again.
This episode explores how Tom Bilyeu structures and deploys a five-member A.I. “department” to automate everything from marketing to content creation, and how this approach is reducing headcount without sacrificing creativity. Tom discusses the granular details of training custom GPTs to capture his voice, fact-checking with Grok, A.I.’s impact on indie game development, and what society might look like as technology accelerates.
