n this episode of the Smarter Campus Podcast, host Zach Kinzler talks with Luca Caniato, an 18-year-old freshman at CU Boulder studying finance and management information systems — and already an AI consultant and fly-fishing guide.

Luca’s story is a perfect example of what happens when curiosity meets opportunity. From using AI to study, to teaching peers, to landing early consulting work, he shows how students can turn experimentation into real-world impact.

🎧 In this episode, we discuss:

  • How curiosity and initiative led Luca to consulting at just 18
  • Why time-saving is the biggest benefit of AI for students and professionals
  • How education is failing to teach ethical and effective AI use
  • What it means when the job market shifts “from a triangle to a diamond”
  • How students can stand out by knowing what’s up in a changing world

Luca’s message is clear: AI isn’t about shortcuts — it’s about amplifying your curiosity and preparing for a future where those who adapt fastest thrive.
