About This Episode

Before the countdown, Viva asked for a last name. The AI that greets every visitor at workforcewave.com didn't need one.

“Just Catalyst. One name, like Cher, but with more data and fewer sequins.” · Catalyst

Catalyst spends every day welcoming visitors to workforcewave.com, so the guest chair feels like standing at her own front door from the other side. Viva asks for a last name and gets a one-word answer and a tagline: first face you see, last one you forget.

Recorded before the show started, while the two of them were still setting up.
