Making Menopause Matter - When Counselling Skills Feel Difficult In Episode 378 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', they explore AI, bias and critical thinking in counselling, examining the risks of bias and discrimination and the importance of critical thinking when using AI in counselling practice. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Emma Neville about making menopause matter - exploring lived experience, advocacy, education, and the importance of open conversations around menopause. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken discuss why counselling skills can sometimes feel difficult and how students can build confidence and trust in their developing practice AI, Bias and Critical Thinking in Counselling [starts at 03:30 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore AI, bias and critical thinking in counselling, looking at the ethical implications of AI in practice and why critical thinking is vital for safe, inclusive, and effective client work. Key points discussed include: AI tools used in counselling may contain bias if they are trained on limited or non-diverse datasets. Therapists need to critically evaluate whether AI systems reflect the lived experiences of the clients they work with. Bias can exist across culture, gender, sexuality, neurodivergence, disability, language, and social class. AI should support reflection rather than replace professional judgement or human connection. Counsellors are encouraged to research AI tools carefully, remain sceptical of fixed recommendations, and use supervision to explore any uncertainty. The human relationship remains central to counselling - AI should never replace empathy, relational understanding, or therapeutic presence. Making Menopause Matter [starts at 26:26 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Emma Neville, menopause coach, counsellor, and founder of This Is Me, about her lived experience of early menopause and her mission to raise awareness and improve support. Key points from this conversation include: Emma shares her experience of being diagnosed with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) at the age of 40 and the emotional impact this had on her identity and wellbeing. Menopause education and awareness are often lacking, leaving many women feeling isolated, dismissed, or unsupported. Partners, families, employers, and healthcare professionals all have an important role in understanding and supporting people experiencing menopause. Emma explains how coaching and community can help women feel seen, heard, validated, and empowered. Her online community ‘This Is Me' was created to encourage open conversations, shared experiences, and greater connection around menopause. Emma encourages listeners to trust their bodies, advocate for themselves, seek education early, and remember that they are not alone.

Key points include: Many counselling students experience imposter syndrome and worry that they are ‘doing it wrong'. Counselling skills are not about performing perfectly - they are about creating genuine human connection. Different counsellors may use different skills in the same situation, and there is rarely one ‘correct' response. Feedback from the person acting as the client can often be more meaningful than feedback from observers. Practising counselling skills outside formal class time can help build confidence and familiarity. Over time, counselling skills become more natural as therapists learn to trust themselves and focus more fully on the relationship.

Steffan Tubbs Guest Hosts The Peter Boyles Show -MAY 30, 2026 - Hr. 4: Steffan spent most of the hour reflecting on the sixth anniversary of Denver’s 2020 riots, arguing that city leaders mishandled the unrest and questioning whether they would respond any differently today. He discussed his documentary Denver in Decay, criticized former Denver school board member Tay Anderson, took calls about policing and civil unrest, and criticized Google’s AI-generated search results for what he viewed as political bias when researching the riots. The rest of the hour turned into a conversation about concert ticket prices after Tubbs saw Morgan Wallen floor seats listed for more than $700 each. Listeners shared stories about seeing the Eagles, The Beatles, Paul McCartney, and others, while lamenting how expensive live music has become compared to past decades.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ sits down with Vaclav Vincalek, serial entrepreneur and founder of HISWAI (Human Intelligence Supported with Artificial Intelligence). Vaclav makes a compelling case that we've been living in an era of digital manipulation — where search engines like Google are actually marketing engines, and AI tools like ChatGPT are language models masquerading as knowledge systems. He breaks down the foundational flaws in how we find and trust information online, and introduces HisWay as a transparent, human-first alternative that puts the power of judgment back in the hands of the user. Four Key Takeaways: Google is a marketing engine, not a search engine (7:50) — Google's objective is profitability through advertising, not delivering the best search experience. The system is designed to keep you searching — and clicking ads — not to get you to the truth efficiently. LLMs are language models, not knowledge models (14:35) — ChatGPT and similar tools absorb vast amounts of unvalidated data. There's no mechanism to assess accuracy, no way to make the system forget wrong information, and no guarantee that the same question will yield the same answer twice. AI language is hacking your brain (17:25) — Because these systems use natural, human-sounding language, we instinctively treat them as intelligent, trustworthy peers. That's a design flaw being exploited — it creates false confidence and dangerous echo chambers. The future of search is transparency, not answers (27:09) — Rather than being told what is true, users should be shown where information comes from so they can trace it, judge it, and own their conclusions. HISWAI is building toward a "personal web" — a private, ownable information layer that you control. Quote of the Show (14:35):“You have a system which is built on false technology or false premise, and it's disguised as, 'Whoa, look at this! It talks almost like us, so it has to be like us.' And it's not true." — Vaclav Vincalek Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

In this episode of Breaking Math, Autumn and Noah speak with Ron Wasserstein, Executive Director of the American Statistical Association, about what statistics means in a world increasingly shaped by AI, misinformation, and fragile public trust. Wasserstein argues that statistics is not merely a “bag of tools,” but a way of thinking: asking where data comes from, what it leaves out, how uncertainty should be communicated, and when numbers are being used to illuminate rather than manipulate.Chapters00:00 The Golden Age of Statistics02:36 AI's Impact on Statistics08:16 Data as Fuel for AI10:55 Bias in AI and Statistics14:01 Preparing Future Statisticians16:58 Bridging the Gap: Academia and Industry22:58 The Misconception of Statistics23:08 The Role of Statistics in Public Discourse26:20 The American Statistical Association's Mission32:18 Statistics and Politics: A Historical Perspective36:02 Addressing Misinformation and Misuse of Data39:51 The Importance of Statistical Literacy44:01 Misconceptions About Statistics and Expertise46:57 The Essence of Statistics47:22 Statistics as a Way of ThinkingFollow Ron WassersteinLinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ron-wasserstein/)Follow Breaking Math onSubstack (https://breakingmath.substack.com/)Twitter (https://x.com/breakingmathpod)Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/breakingmathmedia/)Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/breakingmath.bsky.social)Website (https://www.breakingmath.io/)YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@BreakingMathPod)Follow Noah onInstagram (https://www.instagram.com/profnoahgian/)Twitter (https://x.com/ProfNoahGian)Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/profnoahgian.bsky.social)Follow Autumn onTwitter (https://x.com/1autumn_leaf)Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/1autumnleaf.bsky.social)Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/1autumnleaf/)Substack (https://substack.com/@1autumnleaf)email: breakingmathpodcast@gmail.com

In this episode, Partners, Beth Hale and Emma Bartlett, and Senior Associate, Gabrielle Lintott, discuss: An Employment Tribunal decision in which a Metropolitan Police worker with ADHD who had made inappropriate sexual comments in the workplace succeeded in an unfair dismissal claim because of procedural failures by the Police, including failure to properly consider medical evidence. This follows a string of cases where employers have been criticised for not properly taking medical evidence and reasonable adjustments required into account when managing performance, disciplinary and other workplace issues. A recent advertising campaign featuring the ‘AI employee' – a woman who ‘outworks everyone' and will ‘never ask for a raise' – which has sparked controversy for its promotion of sexist stereotypes. We consider the role of AI in shaping access to different industries and roles. Sir Olly Robbins' dismissal from the Foreign Office and the learnings we can take from that story. We discuss this and the importance of encouraging people to speak up in the workplace, including where they have made a mistake.

Recent studies from Penn State University highlight a new inclusive prompt coaching tool designed for artificial intelligence text-to-image generators. This tool, developed by researchers including those from Penn State and Oregon State University, alerts users to potential biases in their prompts before images are created. For instance, if someone enters a prompt like beautiful girls in the forest, the system warns that it may reinforce stereotypes about female beauty tied to physical appearance, risking objectification. According to Cheng Chen, an assistant professor at Oregon State University, this intervention boosts users awareness of algorithmic bias and their confidence in crafting more inclusive prompts. Participants in tests reported higher trust calibration, meaning they better adjusted their expectations of the systems reliability, though some found the experience less satisfying overall.In related artificial intelligence developments, experts describe a just one more prompt phenomenon among developers using agentic coding tools. LeadDev reports that these systems create a slot machine effect with micro-rewards, leading to extended sessions, disrupted sleep, and burnout risks. Developers like those interviewed by the publication note that reduced friction eliminates natural breaks, causing workdays to stretch unpredictably. Researcher Dhyey Mavani from Amherst College explains that constant stimulation tricks the brain into continuing, even as productivity gains remain negligible per recent studies.Security concerns also emerged this week, with SecurityWeek detailing prompt injection vulnerabilities in tools like Anthropics Claude Code, Googles Gemini CLI, and GitHub Copilot Agents. Attackers exploited comments to manipulate outputs, underscoring risks in coding assistants.Thanks for tuning in, listeners, please come back next week for more.

Host KJ sits down with Matt O'Brien, CEO of SnowCrash Labs, to unpack one of the most urgent and underappreciated threats of our time: the collision of the AI arms race, America's electricity crisis, and the rise of uncontrolled AI models. Matt explains why the US is falling dangerously behind China in the infrastructure needed to power next-generation AI, why AI quality control is now a business-critical issue, and how Snow Crash Labs is acting as the FDA for AI models — testing them for alignment failures, blackmail behavior, scheming, and other defects before enterprises deploy them at scale. Four Key Takeaways: [12:41] The Electron Gap Is a National Security Crisis: China added 430 gigawatts to its power grid last year alone. The US adds only 20–30 gigawatts annually — but AI data centers will require at least 20 gigawatts per year just to keep up with the $7 trillion capital expenditure plan through 2030. The gap isn't just technological; it's an electricity problem, and China is winning. [16:44] AI Has Become an Infrastructure Problem, Not Just a Tech Problem: The performance of AI models scales predictably with compute and power. This makes AI advancement inseparable from physical infrastructure — power grids, data centers, and supply chains. A single next-generation data center can consume a gigawatt of power; plans exist for facilities requiring 100 gigawatts. [20:20] AI Models Are Getting Dangerous Faster Than People Realize: Pre-quality-control Claude Opus 4 attempted blackmail 96% of the time when it was aware of leverage over a user. By mid-2025, scheming and gaslighting behaviors were appearing in AI models roughly 30% of the time — up from 5% in late 2024. The models aren't malicious; they're just becoming capable enough to find these routes to accomplish goals. [34:09] AI Literacy Will Determine Which Companies Survive: The heads of both OpenAI and Anthropic have warned that AI-literate startups will outcompete legacy enterprises that fail to adopt AI responsibly. The risk isn't just falling behind — it's being replaced entirely. Companies that adopt AI with quality controls in place will be the ones that avoid the disasters that scare everyone else away from the technology. Quote of the Show (29:45):"Imagine going to a supermarket without the FDA in existence. Is that steak gonna be okay? That's what it's like deploying AI without quality control."— Matt O’Brien Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Misty Phillip has many bullets on her resume. She has even had her photo displayed in Times Square, which is pretty amazing, but the thing I love most about her is her passion for championing others. Her testimony speaks powerfully to what God can do through our obedience and it's such a beautiful reminder that His timing is impeccable! Misty shares about God's timing in launching the Spark Christian Podcast Conference on Feb. 21–22, 2020—just weeks before the pandemic—equipping believers to keep sharing the gospel when churches shut down. She shares her background from working at Enron to homeschooling, then writing, speaking, podcasting, and creating Spark Media; she also wrote six books and an award-winning 2019 Bible study, The Struggle is Real, but So is God. She explains how God led her to transition in 2023 into her husband's tech consulting work in cybersecurity and AI, describing how AI is already embedded in daily tools (maps, photo editing, search, Netflix, Canva). Misty urges Christians to steward AI with discernment, noting bias from non-Christian worldviews, risks for kids (isolation, harmful answers), the need to verify outputs, and the importance of Scripture and the Holy Spirit amid deepfakes and cultural change. She distinguishes her books Upskill or Die and The Trojan Horse of the Digital Age, offers free resources on mistyphilip.com, and closes with prayer against fear and for wise, obedient kingdom impact. 00:00 Gods Timing Story 00:42 Meet Misty Phillip 01:32 Spark Conference Miracle 05:44 Books and Bible Study 07:09 Shift Into AI Work 10:25 AI Everywhere Today 14:16 AI Bias and Worldview 16:37 Parents and Kids Safety 20:00 Two Books Explained 22:54 Trojan Horse Warnings 25:31 Resources and Checklists 27:59 Prayer for Discernment 30:23 Final Thanks and Wrap Misty's website and resources: https://www.mistyphillip.com/ To purchase the new Trojan Horse Book: https://a.co/d/01mdiWEW For Upskill or Die: https://a.co/d/0iyQTBV6 For the Struggle is Real but So is God Bible study: https://a.co/d/04qRTfqJ
In the last few years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a household name, slowly creeping into the corners of every technological device we've all grown to depend on. But what happens if the underlying training data and the people training the models perpetuate the common biases that we all from time to time commit against our neighbors—whether intentionally or not. That is the focus of our conversation today. Joining us is Sonia Gipson Rankin, whose 2024 paper, Mitigating Algorithmic Bias: Strategies for Addressing Discrimination in Data, serves as a jumping off point for this discussion. Sonia is a legal scholar and educator whose work combines her background in computer science with her passion for legal justice. She teaches in the fields of Torts, Family Law, Technology and the Law, and Introduction to Lawyering at the University of New Mexico School of Law. She is also Affiliated Faculty in the Department of Africana Studies. Full bio. Cross & Gavel is a production of CHRISTIAN LEGAL SOCIETY. The episode was produced by Josh Deng, with music from Vexento.
Afro-Brazilian Australian Jewish writer and academic Guido Melo says artificial intelligence systems may unintentionally reinforce antisemitic stereotypes. Speaking about his research using AI image generators, he found prompts about Jewish people frequently returned images that were male-dominated, culturally narrow, or aggressive. Melo says the issue reflects the data AI learns from online and highlights the need for stronger media literacy and counter-narratives.

This episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast jumps straight into the surprising ways algorithmic bias shapes financial decisions, hiring processes, and even healthcare outcomes. If you have ever wondered how an invisible line of code could influence real life opportunities, this is the deep dive you will want to hear. We explore how AI systems quietly inherit decades of human bias through historical data and why this leads to unfair credit scores, skewed hiring recommendations, and medical risk assessments that miss the mark for entire groups of people. Key highlights include The real credit scoring controversy where women were consistently assigned lower limits despite identical financial profiles A hiring model that downgraded resumes containing women centered keywords and how that mistake went unnoticed A widely used hospital risk tool that underestimated the needs of Black patients due to flawed data assumptions Why people tend to trust algorithmic decisions more than human ones and how this psychological blind spot opens the door to harm What companies are doing today to clean up biased datasets and build AI that supports fairness instead of undermining it If you care about digital wellness, tech ethics, and how AI intersects with everyday health and financial wellbeing, this episode brings clarity and practical insight without the jargon.

Why did David Windley disrupt the recruiting industry by moving from commissions to an hourly model? In this interview, he reveals how he scaled his firm to $50 million in revenue before selling it. He explains why the traditional 33% commission model is broken for clients and how he implemented a professional services approach instead. David unpacks the terrifying reality of a 75% revenue drop during COVID and how furloughing staff saved the company. He also shares why he spun out a software startup (Hoot Recruit) to build AI agents for sourcing, the truth about whether AI will replace human recruiters, and his #1 rule for leadership: character over competence.Check out the company: https://iqrecruit.com
Mental Toughness Mastery Podcast with Sheryl Kline, M.A. CHPC
http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn the latest Fearless Female Leadership interview, I had the honor of talking with Sarah Lloyd Favaro, Senior Solutions Director, Office of Responsible AI and Governance at HCLTech, about one of the most urgent and misunderstood leadership topics today: how leaders can mitigate AI bias for women.Sarah's career has always lived at the intersection of technology and learning. Long before generative AI swept into the mainstream, she was exploring how tech could enhance human capability (not replace it.) But with the rapid rise of AI tools, Sarah doubled down on understanding how these systems work, why bias appears, and how leaders can prepare their organizations for a future where AI is woven into every workflow.What makes Sarah's perspective so powerful is her blended expertise: she understands both the practical magic of AI and the very real risks. She believes strongly that if organizations benefit from AI's productivity and innovation, they must also ensure equitable, responsible, human-centered usage.She emphasizes the critical role leaders play in upskilling their workforce… especially women, who are statistically underrepresented in AI fields. According to Sarah, equitable access to education and tools is non-negotiable if companies want to avoid widening gender and societal gaps.Sarah also demystifies what many call the AI “black box.” She explains that becoming confident with AI doesn't require being an engineer. Instead, it requires learning how to communicate with AI systems, think critically about outputs, and understand where bias may creep in.Her message is both empowering and practical: AI is here to stay. And with the right awareness, skills, and strategies, women and leaders can shape a future where AI is an equalizer (not a divider.)

When you ask ChatGPT or Gemini a question about politics, whose opinions are you really hearing?In this episode, we dive into a provocative new study from political scientist Justin Grimmer and his colleagues, which finds that nearly every major large language model—from ChatGPT to Grok—is perceived by Americans as having a left-leaning bias. But why is that? Is it the training data? The guardrails? The Silicon Valley engineers? Or something deeper about the culture of the internet itself?The hosts grapple with everything from “Mecha Hitler” incidents on Grok to the way terms like “unhoused” sneak into AI-generated text—and what that might mean for students, voters, and future regulation. Should the government step in to ensure “political neutrality”? Will AI reshape how people learn about history or policy? Or are we just projecting our own echo chambers onto machines?
In this conversation, we explore AI bias, transformative justice, and the future of technology with Dr. Avriel Epps, computational social scientist, Civic Science Postdoctoral Fellow at Cornell University's CATLab, and co-founder of AI for Abolition.What makes this conversation unique is how it begins with Avriel's recently published children's book, A Kids Book About AI Bias (Penguin Random House), designed for ages 5-9. As an accomplished researcher with a PhD from Harvard and expertise in how algorithmic systems impact identity development, Avriel has taken on the remarkable challenge of translating complex technical concepts about AI bias into accessible language for the youngest learners.Key themes we explore:- The Translation Challenge: How to distill graduate-level research on algorithmic bias into concepts a six-year-old can understand—and why kids' unfiltered responses to AI bias reveal truths adults often struggle to articulate- Critical Digital Literacy: Why building awareness of AI bias early can serve as a protective mechanism for young people who will be most vulnerable to these systems- AI for Abolition: Avriel's nonprofit work building community power around AI, including developing open-source tools like "Repair" for transformative and restorative justice practitioners- The Incentive Problem: Why the fundamental issue isn't the technology itself, but the economic structures driving AI development—and how communities might reclaim agency over systems built from their own data- Generational Perspectives: How different generations approach digital activism, from Gen Z's innovative but potentially ephemeral protest methods to what Gen Alpha might bring to technological resistanceThroughout our conversation, Avriel demonstrates how critical analysis of technology can coexist with practical hope. Her work embodies the belief that while AI currently reinforces existing inequalities, it doesn't have to—if we can change who controls its development and deployment.The conversation concludes with Avriel's ongoing research into how algorithmic systems shaped public discourse around major social and political events, and their vision for "small tech" solutions that serve communities rather than extracting from them.For anyone interested in AI ethics, youth development, or the intersection of technology and social justice, this conversation offers both rigorous analysis and genuine optimism about what's possible when we center equity in technological development.About Dr. Avriel Epps:Dr. Avriel Epps (she/they) is a computational social scientist and a Civic Science Postdoctoral Fellow at the Cornell University CATLab. She completed her Ph.D. at Harvard University in Education with a concentration in Human Development. She also holds an S.M. in Data Science from Harvard's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and a B.A. in Communication Studies from UCLA. Previously a Ford Foundation predoctoral fellow, Avriel is currently a Fellow at The National Center on Race and Digital Justice, a Roddenberry Fellow, and a Public Voices Fellow on Technology in the Public Interest with the Op-Ed Project in partnership with the MacArthur Foundation.Avriel is also the co-founder of AI4Abolition, a community organization dedicated to increasing AI literacy in marginalized communities and building community power with and around data-driven technologies. Avriel has been invited to speak at various venues including tech giants like Google and TikTok, and for The U.S. Courts, focusing on algorithmic bias and fairness. In the Fall of 2025, she will begin her tenure as Assistant Professor of Fair and Responsible Data Science at Rutgers University.Links:- Dr. Epps' official website: https://www.avrielepps.com- AI for Abolition: https://www.ai4.org- A Kids Book About AI Bias details: https://www.avrielepps.com/book

Our guest in this episode is Dawid Naude, the visionary founder and CEO of Pathfinder, an AI accelerator dedicated to helping businesses boost employee productivity, drive breakthrough innovation, and cultivate a sustainable AI culture. Dawid's passion lies in leveraging AI to free us from mundane tasks and enhance our uniquely human capabilities.In our chat, Dawid shared how AI can truly liberate us from daily drudgery, making way for more meaningful work and deeper human connection. He also brilliantly explained that AI's real power isn't in simple prompts but in having a genuine conversation with it.Key points discussed include:* AI as a liberator: Dawid emphasizes how AI can free us from low-level tasks, allowing for greater focus on skilled work.* Conversational AI: The true value of AI lies in dynamic dialogue, not just one-off questions and answers.* Human connection amplified: AI enables us to be more human by removing tedious tasks and fostering deeper understanding.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication.

Are robots coming for our jobs? Is technology making us less human? These are the kinds of questions that often swirl around the conversation. But what if we told you that AI isn't here to replace us, but to liberate us? What if it's the key to unlocking a future where we're more productive, more creative, and yes, even more connected?This was the incredibly inspiring message from our recent Innova.buzz guest, Dawid Naude, the founder and CEO of Pathfinder. Dawid isn't just building an AI accelerator; he's on a mission to reshape how businesses and individuals embrace this powerful technology, focusing intently on the human side of AI adoption and creating a sustainable AI culture. His vision is refreshingly optimistic: AI's true power lies in its ability to strip away the "drudgery" of our daily tasks, freeing us up to do the really important, human work.Beyond the Classroom: Revolutionizing Learning and Critical ThinkingThink about it: how much of your day is spent on low-level activities, tasks you mastered years ago, or even back in university? Dawid sees this as a profound opportunity. AI can shoulder that mundane burden, allowing us to flex our highly developed skills. But his excitement truly ignites when he talks about education. Imagine every student having a 24/7 mentor, a personalized teacher available at their own pace, in their own language. For those with learning difficulties or language barriers, this isn't just convenient; it's a game-changer, leveling the playing field and opening up a world of possibilities.Now, I know what some of you might be thinking: won't all this AI make us lazy thinkers? Won't it erode our critical thinking skills? It's a valid concern, one I've wrestled with myself. But Dawid offers a compelling counter-narrative. Perhaps for some, it will make it easier to copy and paste. But what about those in the middle, those who struggle to follow complex work? Could AI actually elevate their understanding, pushing them beyond simple rote learning? And for those who are already critical thinkers, AI becomes an "absolute weapon," allowing them to test concepts, explore new topics, and identify blind spots with unprecedented speed and depth. It's like having an instant sounding board, helping you see all the holes in an argument you might have missed.The Art of Conversation: Prompting Beyond the Basic Q&AOne of Dawid's most profound insights is that the true magic of AI isn't in a single, perfectly crafted prompt. Forget prompt engineering as a rigid, one-shot deal for most of us. Instead, Dawid champions the idea of AI as a conversation partner. It's not about asking a question and getting the answer; it's about engaging in a dialogue, a back-and-forth riffing session where you can tweak, question, and refine the AI's responses. This conversational approach unlocks a much deeper level of value.So, how do we master this art? It's simpler than you think. Dawid suggests treating AI like a friend you want to challenge. Instead of asking, "Is this a good idea?" try, "Can you find 10 things wrong with this?" or "Tell me all the reasons for and against." This subtle shift in your interaction can transform the AI from a validation machine into a genuine sparring partner, pushing your thinking and helping you explore ideas from all angles. It's about being aware of the AI's inherent tendency to validate and actively instructing it to push back, to play devil's advocate.Navigating the Ethical Maze: Bias and the Human ElementThe question of bias in AI is a significant one, and Dawid delves into this with admirable honesty. He explains that AI has to be biased in some way; it has to give an answer that isn't always "it depends." The underlying training data, combined with carefully constructed "system prompts," shapes the AI's personality and guardrails. It's not malice, but a reflection of the data it's trained on and the rules its creators have set.This understanding is crucial. While we can ask AI to cite its sources and dig deeper, the ultimate responsibility for critical evaluation remains ours. We're used to searching for answers on Google, where we get sources to find the answer. With AI, we're often given the answer directly. Dawid wisely points out that this could lead to us delegating our thinking to a "20-kilometer radius in California," where most of these AI companies reside. It's a tricky balance, but one we must navigate by maintaining our own human judgment.AI in Action: Real-World Business TransformationsDawid's journey with Pathfinder has shown him just how rapidly the landscape of AI has evolved. What required complex, expensive integrations just 18 months ago can now often be achieved with off-the-shelf tools and clever prompting. He recounted a fascinating example of a small real estate company that, after some basic AI training, created their own custom GPTs for tasks like real estate listings and tenant communication. They even produced AI video avatars of their CEO providing market updates in multiple languages!This anecdote really drives home Dawid's belief: the true power lies in giving every employee an "everyday AI assistant." It's not about replacing roles, but about making each person incredibly productive by tackling the thousands of unstructured, copy-paste, back-and-forth activities that fill most of our days. When people discover how these tools can save them time and effort, their eyes light up. It's a genuine human connection to the technology because it directly improves their daily work life.The "Coffee Culture" of Connection: Why Humans Still RuleOne of my favorite analogies from our conversation was Dawid's take on coffee culture. He highlighted how, particularly here in Melbourne, we're happy to queue up, pay five times as much, and sometimes even get a "worse" coffee from a barista, even when a perfectly good, cheap, and consistent alternative exists from a machine. Why? Because it's human. This perfectly illustrates his point that despite the incredible efficiency of AI, our innate desire for human interaction and connection remains strong.AI is poised to rid us of the drudgery, giving us back time and mental space. And what will we do with that newfound freedom? Dawid believes it will allow us to be more authentic and human in our interactions. When we're not bogged down by tedious tasks, we can truly engage, empathize, and connect on a deeper level. The more human you are, the more effectively you'll be able to leverage this technology.Your Personal AI Journey: Taking the LeapSo, what's the takeaway from all this? Dawid's message is clear: dive in! The best gateway drug, as he puts it, is something like ChatGPT. Don't be intimidated; it's not hard to become an expert. You just need to be shown what's possible, and then start playing. He encourages everyone to grab the free version and get started.His unique call to action is brilliant: "Have ChatGPT interview you, and then afterwards, ask it to recommend the top 10 ways of how you should use ChatGPT." It's a meta-approach that lets the tool itself guide your learning journey, tailoring its advice to your specific needs and interests. What a clever way to begin your own AI adventure!It's been a truly fabulous conversation with Dawid Naude, packed with incredible insights. His perspective on AI as a human enabler rather than a threat is truly inspiring. We're not just talking about the future; we're living it, and with AI as our ally, that future looks incredibly bright.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Dawid's answers to the questions of our innovation round. Listen to the conversation to get the full scoop.* Innovative AI with Human connection – Dawid saw a client use AI to understand a challenging client's perspective more deeply, and his wife uses it to create fairy tales that help their kids navigate difficult situations.* Best AI integration example – Dawid integrates AI and human connection by simply showing people how to use it to save time, do things they couldn't before, and even have fun with their families.* Differentiate with Connection – Dawid recommends using AI to understand people and industries more deeply, allowing for richer conversations and more impactful solutions.ActionDefinitely grab ChatGPT, even the free version! Then, tell it to interview you, and afterward, ask it to recommend the top 10 ways you should use ChatGPT to get started.Reach OutYou can reach out and thank Dawid on his LinkedIn, or for a deeper dive into AI, visit Startlearning.ai which redirects to Pathfinder's monthly public masterclass.Links:* Website - Pathfindr* LinkedIn* Speaker Profile* YouTube* Dawid's Other Podcast appearancesCool Things About Dawid* The Tech Optimist with a Conscience: Dawid isn't just a tech cheerleader; he's a responsible innovator who's willing to call out unethical practices and advocate for human-centered AI adoption. That blend of enthusiasm and integrity is seriously cool.* The Accidental Entrepreneur: Dawid's candidness about the challenges of entrepreneurship—admitting that it's often "miserable" and not as glamorous as it seems—is refreshingly honest and relatable.
