Human-Centered AI: Building Brains, Not Replacing Them
As AI becomes more embedded in our everyday work, what does responsible, human-centered use actually look like? How can organizations ensure AI supports employees rather than making work feel more surveilled or dehumanizing? Sasha breaks down the neuroscience of cognitive offloading and why AI use can de-skill us faster than we realize, while Judy brings the organizational perspective on why AI adoption requires experimentation, which requires trust. We explore why leaders need to ask "what makes our people uniquely valuable?" before automating everything, and how to design AI implementation that actually benefits employees rather than just increasing surveillance. The key insight: AI is a massive opportunity to advance human flourishing, but only if we center people over profit. As Judy frames it, get clear on what you want to do in relationship and community with other people versus what you're genuinely ready to let go of.
