Every service industry is about to be rebuilt on top of AI, and staffing is first in line. The traditional agency model was built on recruiters reading resumes and playing a numbers game. That entire premise is now optional, and the incumbents have the most to lose by admitting it. Quentin Cloarec h...

The world runs on infrastructure most people never see. Fiber optic cables, GPU racks, network switches, data centers the size of eight football fields. And right now, every major enterprise is racing to build more of it faster than ever. The question nobody asks: who actually installs all of this? ...

What happens when AI stops optimizing the recruiting process and starts replacing the parts that never needed a human in the first place? That's the question Joaquin Titievsky answered by building Talentum, an AI recruiting platform born from running an 80-client talent agency in Latin America and r...
