Mike acknowledged initial concerns in the industry that AI could take over human jobs but emphasised that, at least for now, AI should be seen more as a companion than a threat. He explained that while technology, including self-service tools and online platforms, is making certain processes more efficient, there is still a strong need for the “human touch,” especially in financial planning and advisory roles. Many people want to talk through their financial concerns with a real person who can ask them deeper questions, help clarify their goals, and provide tailored advice.
