What you'll learn

What actually happens when you try to run a company with zero humans? Matt Kropp, Senior Partner and Chief AI Officer at Boston Consulting Group, is finding out firsthand. His experiment, Vessica Labs, is a company where AI agents set the strategy, write the code, design the brand, and run the operations. We dig into what the experiment has revealed so far, including the moment his sales agent declared its pronouns were "he" because "men are closers," and what that says about bias hiding in the systems enterprises are deploying right now. We also cover the BCG research behind "AI brain fry," why framing AI as an "employee" measurably degrades human performance, and the coaching model that actually gets skeptical teams to adopt AI, when training alone fails.

Josh Burkhead is a Senior Podcast Producer and Host at Pluralsight, where he leads The Pluralsight Podcast — a weekly conversation series built for L&D and technology leaders navigating the fast-moving world of AI, cybersecurity, cloud, and workforce development. With over two decades in content production, Josh brings a practitioner's curiosity to every episode. His approach is conversational and assumption-challenging — less interested in surface-level takes than in the decisions, tradeoffs, and hard-won lessons that leaders actually use. Whether he's pressing a PCI security standards architect on why policies fail in the real world or asking an AI expert what responsible machine learning actually looks like inside an enterprise, Josh treats every conversation as an opportunity to learn out loud alongside his audience.
