Why Being Human Has Never Mattered More
from Anatomy of Conflict · host Ryan McLaughlin
AI can replicate Sam Ardery's five-finger risk framework. It can summarize his talks better than he can. So what does a mediator actually do that a language model can't? Ryan and Sam explore the irreducible human work at the center of conflict resolution — and why, in 2026, emotional intelligence isn't competing with AI. It's the only thing AI can't (yet) replace.
