Why You Feel Uneasy About AI (Even If You Can’t Explain Why)

What happens when AI stops being just a business tool and starts reshaping trust, power, and the way institutions make decisions?In this conversation, Shefaly Yogendra explores how AI is changing leadership, governance, and human judgment, and why the biggest risks may come not from the technology itself, but from the systems and incentives surrounding it.But this isn’t just a story about better tools.It’s about a deeper shift:🔹 What happens when leaders begin relying on AI to make decisions they barely understand?🔹 Could automation deepen existing problems in trust, power, and accountability rather than solve them?🔹 And how should institutions adapt when intelligence becomes abundant, but wisdom does not?At the centre of the discussion is a harder question:If AI is becoming embedded in business, politics, and public life, can we build systems that stay human, accountable, and trustworthy as the technology scales?Because the real challenge may not be building smarter systems, but becoming wise enough to govern them.
