  • Here's your Money Briefing for Friday, June 27th.

  • I'm Arianna Aspuru for The Wall Street Journal.

  • In a tough job market,

  • some workers might turn to a career coach to help figure out their next move.

  • But Wall Street Journal contributor Alexandra Samuel turned to Viv,

  • a custom AI assistant, to guide her through her professional goals.

  • I got so clear,

  • so quickly on the core vision for my work that I really do feel like I'm in a totally different place.

  • I just don't know when I have last changed so much in my work or personal life in 12 months.

  • We'll hear from Alex and a bit from Viv about how an AI coach works and what you should know

  • if you're looking to test one out.

  • Stick around after the break.

  • When Wall Street Journal contributor Alexandra Samuel wants some help figuring out the next step in her career,

  • she turns to an AI assistant she calls Viv.

  • So if you could create a dream project that blends your quirky tech solutions,

  • deep documentation, and meaningful impact, what would it look like?

  • How would it help people and align with a mission-driven purpose?

  • We recently spoke to Alex about her experience using AI as her shopping assistant.

  • But now she's written another piece about how AI has also become the best career coach she's ever had.

  • And she joins us again to talk about it.
