When AI Gets Too Personal: Managing Employee Attachment and Boundaries at Work

In the new year, episodes of The AI+HI Project will be released biweekly, but you can still get your weekly podcast fix with Tomorrowist! We'll be back with a new episode of The AI+HI Project on January 22. Until then, here’s a great Tomorrowist episode for your enjoyment: Employee attachments to AI can disrupt workplace dynamics and individual well-being. From recognizing signs of overreliance to setting healthy boundaries, this conversation with Julie Carpenter, PhD, breaks down what leaders need to know to foster a balanced, connected workforce where both human and artificial intelligence collaborate effectively — and how to act before personal connections with AI impact organizational culture.
