The Future of Hiring with Josh Hill

Applying to a thousand jobs in ten minutes hasn't made hiring better — it's made it broken. So what actually fixes it? The Ai Chicks' Aisha and Lana sit down with Josh Hill, co-founder of Super Hired, to get into the nitty-gritty of how AI is reshaping hiring and recruiting — for founders, HR leaders, and anyone stuck in today's brutal job market. Josh's big idea is a refreshing pushback on the hype: hiring should be human-led and AI-augmented, not AI-led. He reframes recruiting as matchmaking — a deep, two-sided discovery of what a company actually offers and what a candidate actually wants — and explains why the resume is fundamentally broken, why "AI slop" has flooded the market with noise, and why keyword-screening tools quietly knock out great people. Drawing on a decade in the military, years in marketing, and a career in people and culture, Josh shares what companies and candidates should each do differently — from selling the culture you have (not the one you want) to trialing candidates through real-world simulations. Tune in for a smart, practical conversation about building the hiring process of the future.

Unlocking Human Potential with Christina Brady of Luster AI

What if AI's real job at work isn't to replace you — but to make you unstoppable? The Ai Chicks talk with Christina Brady, CEO of Luster AI, about unlocking human potential at work. Christina explains "predictive enablement" — identifying a skill gap before it costs you a deal, then building and delivering the coaching to fix it and measuring the rep to proficiency. She shares her improbable path from aspiring actor and Second City improviser to homelessness, into sales, through Groupon and Glassdoor, and finally to founding an AI company with the incubator High Alpha. We dig into the marathon metaphor for AI (build the treadmill, don't run the race for people), why mass layoffs waste reskilling opportunities, skill variability across teams, the subjectivity problem in coaching, curiosity as a trainable skill, and why prompting AI well is the same muscle as communicating well with humans. 🎧 Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts▶️ Watch the video version on Patreon🛍️ Grab AI Chicks merch + follow @theaichicks Learn more about your ad choices.

When AI Serves The Community: DETROIT EDITION

In this episode, The AI Chicks sit down with Gabe Wilson, Microsoft-certified AI engineer and co-founder of Believe in AI, to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping civic life in Detroit.

We unpack how you build empathy and guardrails into AI so it stays in its lane instead of hallucinating, how Gabe tackles bias head-on, what it takes to serve multilingual communities across 32+ languages, and why the next frontier of AI isn't just commerce — it's civic responsibility.
