Ep 38. Staying Human in an AI World w/ Bethan Winn

from Reconnect to Self with Tracey and Scott · host Scott Quayle

In a world where AI, algorithms and speed are doing more and more of the thinking for us, what does it actually mean to stay human?This week we’re joined by Bethan Winn, critical thinking educator, speaker and author of The Human Edge, for a conversation that became far less about technology… and far more about agency, meaning and identity.We talk about:The subtle cost of outsourcing our thinkingWhy speed and efficiency don’t always equal depth“Working ourselves into meaninglessness”AI in everyday life (and where it can quietly dull our edge)Authenticity, creativity and getting your hands dirtyRaising kids in a world of confident misinformationHow to use AI as a tool: without losing yourself in the processThis isn’t a conversation about whether AI is good or bad.It’s about noticing what we might be giving up when we let it think for us.Because maybe the real risk isn’t machines becoming more powerful…it’s humans becoming less engaged.If you’ve ever felt that strange mix of productivity and hollowness after flying through tasks…If you’ve questioned whether convenience is costing you something…If you care about staying thoughtful, present and connected in a noisy world…This episode is for you.Follow Bethan:bethanwinn.com.auLinkedinFollow Tracey:instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@traceyquayle.therapy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tik Tok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@traceyquayle.therapy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@traceyquayle.therapy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@traceyquayle.therapy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*Join my mailing list*⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.traceyquayle.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Disclaimer: This podcast is for information only and isn’t a substitute for personalised therapy.
