In this episode of Risky Business, Hattingh and Jonathan Shaw reconnect in person to explore the rapid shifts in technology, culture, and leadership. They reflect on the rise of AI-generated content, its ability to reshape narratives, and the responsibility of remaining discerning in a media-saturated world. The conversation extends into lessons from global progress stories like South Korea, the challenges facing South Africa, and the need for empathetic adaptation in times of disruption. Balancing tech-driven change with human creativity and purpose, they emphasise that growth, learning, and innovation remain possible at any stage of life.
