AI Is Quietly Eroding the Skills Leaders Need Most with Steven Kotler
from Coachful Coaching Leadership Podcast · host David Fung | Leadership & Professional Development
Executives used AI to write their emails for one month. Then they couldn't write one themselves. Steven Kotler, NYT bestselling author of seventeen books and founder of the Flow Research Collective, joins me to explain why the bottleneck of this century isn't technology, it's the human brain.We cover the flow research behind 500% productivity gains and 230% faster learning, the twelve categories of cognition AI quietly erodes, the Universe 25 mouse utopia that collapsed despite total abundance, and the framework at the heart of his new book with Peter Diamandis, We Are as Gods: separating frames, mindset, and bias so you can actually train each one. Steven also shares the Zen practice he starts with, why mindfulness is the mechanism that teaches leaders to spot opportunity, and his blunt answer when I asked who owns the abundance.His closing message for every leader: the soft skills of the last century, creativity, focus, purpose, mindset, are the hard skills of this one. Train them, or the technology erodes them.Full show notes: https://coachfulcoaching.com/coachful-coaching-leadership-podcast/ai-is-quietly-eroding-the-skills-leaders-need-most-with-steven-kotlerWork with me at coachfulcoaching.comSteven's book: We are as Gods
