We’ve spent the last three weeks exploring the tools, valuations, and code behind the AI boom. Now we turn to the one variable that renders even the best tech useless: People.

We are joined by Warren Leow and Dr. Lau Cher Han, co-founders of SuperGroup, to answer the boss's ultimate dilemma: Is it financially smarter to spend six months retraining a legacy workforce, or replace them with AI natives?

We discuss:

• The "People Bottleneck": Why the biggest hurdle isn't the tech, but the "Monday Blue effect", sliding back to manual habits immediately after training .

• Beyond "Magic Words": Why we have moved past simple Prompt Engineering into "Context Engineering" and writing System Prompts to configure the AI's "brain" .

• Zero to Agent in 16 Hours: Dr. Lau reveals that it takes just 16 hours (two days) for a non-coder to build a working agent that connects to WhatsApp or performs OCR.

• 10 Staff, 80 Roles: How SuperGroup uses a team of just 10 people to do the work of 70 to 80, building multiple products like SuperN8n and KAIN simultaneously .

• Retrain or Replace? The guests debate the calculus of keeping legacy staff versus hiring "AI Natives" versus "AI First" employees .
