Good morning, Rose.

Well, good morning, Dennis.

You know, in his absence and in honor of his birthday, today I'm going to share some details about our friend Chuck Buck.

I first met Chuck through a mutual friend, Fred Stodolak, who you'll hear from later in the show.

Many of you know Chuck as the man with the full head of hair, wildly distinctive eyeglasses, and that rare ability to be both serious and jolly.

You may also know Chuck as the creator and host of Talk 10 Tuesdays and Monitor Mondays.

But what do you really know about the man behind the microphone? Chuck was born 84 years ago today in an era when mothers ruled the household, fathers were generally the breadwinners, and the children routinely said, yes, ma'am, yes, sir, and thank you.

And Rose, welcome to Touching Tuesday.

Well, thanks, Chuck.

Excuse me.

I originally planned to discuss ways that individuals can become familiar with with AI tools, but instead I decided to focus on a more important question.

Where is your career going? A Gallup poll reported that approximately 15 to 18% of workers believed AI could replace at least part of their jobs.

Whether that number is accurate is less important than what it represents, a growing concern about the future of work.

Those concerns are no longer theoretical.
