Penn – 00:00 In this week’s In-Ear Insights, a few people have asked us the question, should I hire an AI expert—a person, an AI expert on my team—or should I try to grow AI expertise, someone as an AI leader within my company? I can see there being pros and cons to both, but, Katie, you are the people expert. You are the organizational behavior expert. I know the answer is it depends. But at first blush, when someone comes to you and says, hey, should I be hiring an AI expert, somebody who can help shepherd my organization through the crazy mazes of AI, or should I grow my own experts? What is your take on that question? Katie Robbert – 00:47 Well, it definitely comes down to it depends. It depends on what you mean by an AI expert. So, what is it about AI that they are an expert in? Are you looking for someone who is staying up to date on all of the changes in AI? Are you looking for someone who can actually develop with AI tools? Or are you looking for someone to guide your team through the process of integrating AI tools? Or are you looking for all of the above? Which is a totally reasonable response, but that doesn’t mean you’ll get one person who can do all three. So, I think first and foremost, it comes down to what is your goal? And by that I mean, what is the AI expertise that your team is lacking? Katie Robbert – 01:41 Or what is the purpose of introducing AI into your organization? So, unsurprisingly, starting with the 5P framework, the 5Ps are purpose, people, process, platform, performance, because marketers like alliteration. So, purpose. You want to define clearly what AI means to the company, so not your ‘what I did over summer vacation’ essay, but what AI means to me. What do you want to do with AI? Why are you bringing AI in? Is it because I want to keep up with my competitors? Bad answer. Is it because you want to find efficiencies? Okay, that’s a little bit better. But if you’re finding efficiencies, first you need to know what’s not working. So before you jump into getting an AI expert, you probably need someone who’s a process expert or an expert in the technologies that you feel like are inefficient. Katie Robbert – 02:39 So my personal stance is that there’s a lot of foundational work to do before you figure out if you can have an AI expert. An AI expert is like bringing in an AI piece of software. It’s one more thing in your tech stack. This is one more person in your organization fighting to be heard. What are your thoughts, Chris? Christopher S. Penn – 03:02 AI expert is kind of like saying, I want to hire a business expert. It’s a very umbrella term. Okay, are your finances bad? Is your hiring bad? Is your sales process bad? To your point, being very specific about your purpose and the performance—which are the bookends of the 5Ps—is really important because otherwise AI is a big area. You have regression, you have classification, you have generative AI. Even within generative AI, you have coding, media generation. There’s so many things. We were having a discussion internally in our own organization this morning about some ideas about internationalization using AI. It’s a big planet. Katie Robbert – 03:46 Yeah, you’ve got to give me some direction. What does that mean? I think you and I, Chris, are aligned. If you’re saying, ‘I want to bring in an AI expert,’ you don’t actually know what you’re looking for because there are so many different facets of expertise within the AI umbrella that you want to be really specific about what that actually means and how you’re going to measure their performance. So if you’re looking for someone to help you make things more efficient, that’s not necessarily an AI expert. If you’re concerned that your team is not on board, that’s not an AI expert. If you are thinking that you’re not getting the most out of the platforms that you’re using, that’s not an AI expert. Those are very different skill sets. Katie Robbert – 04:38 An AI expert, if we’re talking—let’s just say we could come up with a definition of an AI expert—Chris, you are someone who I would consider an AI expert, and I would list those qualifications as: someone who stays up to date. Someone who knows enough that you can put pretty much any model in front of them and they know how to build a prompt, and someone who can speak to how these tools would integrate into your existing tech stack. My guess is that’s the kind of person that everybody’s looking for: someone to bring AI into my organization, do some light education, and give us a tool to play with. Christopher S. Penn – 05:20 We often talk about things like strategy, tactics, execution, and measurement. So, sort of four layers: why are you doing this thing? What are you going to do? How are you going to do it, and did it work? An actual AI expert has to be able to do all four of those things to say, here’s why we’re doing this thing—AI or not. But here’s why you’d use AI, here’s what AI tools and technologies you use, here’s how you do them, and here’s the proof that what you did worked. So when someone says, ‘I want an AI expert for my company,’ even then, they have to be clear: do we want someone who’s going to help us set our strategy or do we want someone who’s going to build stuff and make stuff for us? It’s very unclear. Christopher S. Penn – 06:03 I think that narrowing down the focus, even if you do narrow down the focus, you still have to restart the 5Ps. So let’s say we got this question from another colleague of ours: ‘I want to do AI lead generation.’ Was the remit to help me segment and use AI to do better lead generation? Well, that’s not an AI problem. As you always say, new technology does not solve all problems. This is not an AI problem; this is a lead generation problem. So the purpose is pretty clear. You want more leads, but it’s not a platform issue with AI. It is actually a people problem. How are people buying in the age of AI? And that’s what you need to solve. Christopher S. Penn – 06:45 And from there you can then go through the 5Ps and user stories and things to say, ‘yeah, this is not an AI expert problem. This is an attention problem.’ You are no longer getting awareness because AI has eaten it. How are you going to get attention to generate audience that becomes prospects that eventually becomes leads? Katie Robbert – 07:05 Yeah, that to me is an ideal customer profile, sales playbook, marketing planning and measurement problem. And sure, you can use AI tools to help with all of those things, but those are not the core problems you’re trying to solve. You don’t need AI to solve any of those problems. You can do it all without it. It might take a little longer or it might not. It really depends. I think that’s—So, Chris, I guess we’re not saying, ‘no, you can’t bring in an AI expert.’ We’re saying there’s a lot of different flavors of AI expertise. And especially now where AI is the topic, the thing—it was NFTs and it was crypto and it was Bitcoin and it was Web three, whatever the heck that was. And it was, pick a thing—Clubhouse. Katie Robbert – 07:57 All of a sudden, everybody was an expert. Right now everybody’s a freaking expert in AI. You can’t sneeze and not have someone be like, ‘I’m an AI expert. I can fix that problem for you.’ Cool. I’ve literally never seen you in the space, but congratulations, you’re an AI expert. The point I’m making here is that if you are not hyper specific about the kind of expertise you’re looking for, you are likely going to end up with a dud. You are likely going to end up with someone who is willing to come in at a lower price just to get their foot in the door. Christopher S. Penn – 08:40 Yep. Katie Robbert – 08:40 Or charge you a lot of money. You won’t know that it’s not working until it doesn’t work and they’ve already moved on. We talked about this on the livestream yesterday about people who come in as AI experts to fix your sales process or something like that. And you don’t know it’s not working until you’ve spent a lot of money on this expert, but you’re not bringing in any more revenue. But by then they’re gone. They’re already down the street selling their snake oil to the next guy. Christopher S. Penn – 09:07 Exactly. Now, to the question of should you grow your own? That’s a big question because again, what level of expertise are you looking for? Strategy, tactics, or execution? Do you want someone who can build? Do you want someone who can choose tools and tactics? Do you want someone who can set the strategy? And then within your organization, who are those people? And this is very much a people issue, which is: do they have the aptitudes to do that? I don’t mean AI aptitude; I mean, are they a curious person? Do they learn quickly? Do they learn well outside their domain? Because a lot of people can learn in their domain with what’s familiar to them. But a whole bunch of other people are really uncomfortable learning something outside their domain. Christopher S. Penn – 09:53 And for one reason or another, they may not be suited as humans to become that internal AI champion. Katie Robbert – 10:02 I would add to that not only the curiosity, but also the communication, because it’s one thing to be able to learn it, but then you have to, if you’re part of a larger team, explain what you learned, explain why you think this is a good idea. You don’t have to be a professional speaker, be able to give a TED talk, but you need to be able to say, ‘hey, Chris, I found this tool. Here’s what it does, here’s why I think we should use it,’ and be able to do that in a way that Chris is like, ‘oh, yeah! That is a really good idea. Let’s go ahead and explore it.’ But if you just say, ‘I found this thing,’ okay, and congratulations, here’s your sticker, that’s not helpful. Katie Robbert – 10:44 So communication, the people part of it, is essential. Right now, a lot of companies—we talked about this on last week’s podcast—a lot of leaders, a lot of CEOs, are disregarding the people in favor of ‘AI is going to do it,’ ‘technology is going to take it over,’ and that’s just not how that’s going to work. You can go ahead and alienate all of your people, but then you don’t have anyone to actually do the work. Because AI doesn’t just set itself up; it doesn’t just run itself without you telling it what it is you need it to do. And you need people to do that. Christopher S. Penn – 11:27 Yep. Really important AI models—we just had a raft of new announcements. So the new version of Gemini 2.5, the new version of OpenAI’s Codex, Claude 4 from Anthropic just came out. These models have gotten insanely smart, which, as Ethan Mollock from Wharton says, is a problem, because the smarter AI gets, the smarter its mistakes get and the harder it is for non-experts to pick up that expert AI is making expert-level mistakes that can still steer the ship in the wrong direction, but you no longer know if you’re not a domain expert in that area. So part of ‘do we grow an AI expert internally’ is: does this person that we’re thinking of have the ability to become an AI expert but also have domain expertise in our business to know when the AI is wrong? Katie Robbert – 12:26 At the end of the day, it’s software development. So if you understand the software development lifecycle, or even if you don’t, here’s a very basic example. Software engineers, developers, who don’t have a QA process, yes, they can get you from point A to point B, but it may be breaking things in the background. It might be, if their code is touching other things, something else that you rely on may have been broken. But listen, that thing you asked for—it’s right here. They did it. Or it may be using a lot of API tokens or server space or memory, whatever it is. Katie Robbert – 13:06 So if you don’t also have a QA process to find out if that software is working as expected, then yes, they got you from point A to point B, but there are all of these other things in the background that aren’t working. So, Chris, to your point about ‘as AI gets smarter, the mistakes get smarter’—unless you’re building people and process into these AI technologies, you’re not going to know until you get slapped with that thousand-dollar bill for all those tokens that you used. But hey, great! Three of your prospects now have really solid lead scores. Cool. Christopher S. Penn – 13:44 So I think we’re sort of triangulating on what the skills are that you should be looking for, which is someone who’s a good critical thinker, someone who’s an amazing communicator who can explain things, someone who is phenomenal at doing requirements gathering and being able to say, ‘this is what the thing is.’ Someone who is good at QA to be able to say the output of this thing—human or machine—is not good, and here’s why, and here’s what we should do to fix it. Someone who has domain expertise in your business and can explain, ‘okay, this is how AI does or does not fit into these things.’ And then someone who knows the technology—strategy, tactics, and execution. Why are we using this technology? What does the technology do? How do we deploy it? Christopher S. Penn – 14:30 For example, Mistral, the French company, just came up with a new model Dev Stroll, which is apparently doing very well on software benchmarks. Knowing that it exists is important. But then that AI expert who has to have all those other areas of expertise also has to know why you would use this, what you would use it for, and how you would use it. So I almost feel that’s a lot to cram into one human being. Katie Robbert – 14:56 It’s funny, I was just gonna say I feel that’s where—and obviously dating ourselves—that’s where things, the example of Voltron, where five mini-lion bots come together to make one giant lion bot, is an appropriate example because no one person—I don’t care who they are—no one person is going to be all of those things for you. But congratulations: together Chris and I are. That Voltron machine—just a quick plug. Because it’s funny, as you’re going through, I’m like, ‘you’re describing the things that we pride ourselves on, Chris,’ but neither of us alone make up that person. But together we do cover the majority. I would say 95% of those things that you just listed we can cover, we can tackle, but we have to do it together. Katie Robbert – 15:47 Because being an expert in the people side of things doesn’t always coincide with being an expert in the technology side of things. You tend to get one or the other. Christopher S. Penn – 15:59 Exactly. And in our case as an agency, the client provides the domain expertise to say, ‘hey, here’s what our business is.’ We can look at it and go, ‘okay, now I understand your business and I can apply AI technology and AI processes and things to it.’ But yeah, we were having that discussion not too long ago about, should we claim that AI expertise in healthcare technologies? Well, we know AI really well. Do we know healthcare—DSM codes—really well? Not really, no. So could we adapt and learn fast? Yes. But are we practitioners day to day working in an ER? No. Katie Robbert – 16:43 So in that case, our best bet is to bring on a healthcare domain expert to work alongside both of us, which adds another person to the conversation. But that’s what that starts to look like. If you say, ‘I want an AI expert in healthcare,’ you’re likely talking about a few different people. Someone who knows healthcare, someone who knows the organizational behavior side of things, and someone who knows the technology side of things. And together that gives your quote-unquote AI expert. Christopher S. Penn – 17:13 So one of the red flags for the AI expert side of things, if you’re looking to bring in someone externally, is someone who claims that with AI, they can know everything because the machines, even with great research tools, will still make mistakes. And just because someone’s an AI expert does not mean they have the sense to understand the subtle mistakes that were made. Not too long ago, we were using some of the deep research tools to pull together potential sponsors for our podcast, using it as a sales prospecting tool. And we were looking at it, looking at who we know to be in the market: ‘yeah, some of these are not good fits.’ Even though it’s plausible, it’s still not a good fit. Christopher S. Penn – 18:01 One of them was the Athletic Greens company, which, yes, for a podcast, they advertise on every podcast in the world. I know from listening to other shows and listening to actual experts that there’s some issues with that particular sponsorship. So it’s not a good fit. Even though the machine said, ‘yeah, this is because they advertise on every other podcast, they’re clearly just wanting to hand out money to podcasters.’ I have the domain expertise in our show to know, ‘yeah, that’s not a good fit.’ But as someone who is an AI expert who claimed that they understood everything because AI understands everything, doesn’t know that the machine’s wrong. So as you’re thinking about, should I bring an AI expert on externally, vet them on the level, vet them on how willing they are to say, ‘I don’t know.’ Katie Robbert – 18:58 But that’s true of really any job interview. Christopher S. Penn – 19:01 Yes. Katie Robbert – 19:02 Again, new tech doesn’t solve old problems, and AI is, at least from my perspective, exacerbating existing problems. So suddenly you’re an expert in everything. Suddenly it’s okay to be a bad manager because ‘AI is going to do it.’ Suddenly the machines are all. And that’s not an AI thing. Those are existing problems within your organization that AI is just going to magnify. So go ahead and hire that quote-unquote AI expert who on their LinkedIn profile says they have 20 years of generative AI expertise. Good luck with that person, because that’s actually not a thing now. Christopher S. Penn – 19:48 At most it would have to be 8 years and you would have to have credentials from Google DeepMind, because that’s where it was invented. You cannot say it’s anything older than that. Katie Robbert – 20:00 But I think that’s also a really good screening question is: do you know what Google DeepMind is? And do you know how long it’s been around? Christopher S. Penn – 20:09 Yep. If someone is an actual AI expert—not ‘AI and marketing,’ but an actual AI expert itself—can you explain the Transformers architecture? Can you explain the diffuser architecture? Can you explain how they’re different? Can you explain how one becomes the other? Because that was a big thing that was announced this week by Google DeepMind. No surprise about how they’re crossing over into each other, which is a topic for another time. But to your point, I feel AI is making Dunning-Kruger much worse. At the risk of being insensitive, it’s very much along gender lines. There are a bunch of dudes who are now making wild claims: ‘no, you really don’t know what you’re talking about.’ Katie Robbert – 21:18 I hadn’t planned on putting on my ranty pants today, but no, I feel that’s. Again, that’s a topic for another time. Okay. So here’s the thing: you’re not wrong. To keep this podcast and this topic productive, you just talked about a lot of things that people should be able to explain if they are an AI expert. The challenge on the other side of that table is people hiring that AI expert aren’t experts in AI. So, Chris, you could be explaining to me how Transformers turn into Voltron, bots turn into Decepticons, and I’m like, ‘yeah, that sounds good’ because you said all the right words. So therefore, you must be an expert. So I guess my question to you is, how can a non-AI expert vet and hire an AI expert without losing their mind? Is that possible? Christopher S. Penn – 22:15 Change the words. How would you hire a medical doctor when you’re not a doctor? How would you hire a plumber when you’re not a plumber? What are the things that you care about? And that goes back to the 5Ps, which is: and we say this with job interviews all the time. Walk me through, step by step, how you would solve this specific problem. Katie, I have a lead generation problem. My leads are—I’m not getting enough leads. The ones I get are not qualified. Tell me as an AI expert exactly what you would do to solve this specific problem. Because if I know my business, I should be able to listen to you go, ‘yeah, but you’re not understanding the problem, which is, I don’t get enough qualified leads. I get plenty of leads, but they’re crap.’ Christopher S. Penn – 23:02 It’s the old Glengarry Glen Ross: ‘The leads are weak.’ Whereas if the person is an actual AI expert, they can say, ‘okay, let me ask you a bunch of questions. Tell me about your marketing automation software. Tell me about your CRM. Tell me how you have set up the flow to go from your website to your marketing automation to your sales CRM. Tell me about your lead scoring. How do you do your lead scoring? Because your leads are weak, but you’re still collecting tons of them. That means you’re not using your lead scoring properly. Oh, there’s an opportunity where I can show AI’s benefit to improve your lead scoring using generative AI.’ Christopher S. Penn – 23:40 So even in that, we haven’t talked about a single model or a single ‘this’ or ‘that,’ but we have said, ‘let me understand your process and what’s going on.’ That’s what I would listen for. If I was hiring an AI expert to diagnose anything and say, I want to hear, and where we started: this person’s a great communicator. They’re a critical thinker. They can explain things. They understand the why, the what, and the how. They can ask good questions. Katie Robbert – 24:12 If I was the one being interviewed and you said, ‘how can I use AI to improve my lead score? I’m getting terrible leads.’ My first statement would be, ‘let’s put AI aside for a minute because that’s not a problem AI is going to solve immediately without having a lot of background information.’ So, where does your marketing team fit into your sales funnel? Are they driving awareness or are you doing all pure cold calling or outbound marketing—whatever it is you’re doing? How clear is your ideal customer profile? Is it segmented? Are you creating different marketing materials for those different segments? Or are you just saying, ‘hi, we’re Trust Insights, we’re here, please hire us,’ which is way too generic. Katie Robbert – 24:54 So there’s a lot of things that you would want to know before even getting into the technology. I think that, Chris, to your point, an AI expert, before they say, ‘I’m the expert, here’s what AI is going to fix,’ they’re going to know that there are a lot of things you probably need to do before you even get to AI. Anyone who jumps immediately to AI is going to solve this problem is likely not a true expert. They are probably just jumping on the bandwagon looking for a dollar. Christopher S. Penn – 25:21 Our friend Andy Crestedine has a phenomenal phrase that I love so much, which is ‘prescription before diagnosis is malpractice.’ That completely applies here. If you’re saying ‘AI is the thing, here’s the AI solution,’ yeah, but we haven’t talked about what the problem is. So to your point about if you’re doing these interviews, the person’s ‘oh yeah, all things AI. Let’s go.’ I get that as a technologist at heart, I’m like, ‘yeah, look at all the cool things we can do.’ But it doesn’t solve. Probably on the 5Ps here—down to performance—it doesn’t solve: ‘Here’s how we’re going to improve that performance.’ Katie Robbert – 26:00 To your point about how do you hire a doctor? How do you hire a plumber? We’ve all had that experience where we go to a doctor and they’re like, ‘here’s a list of medications you can take.’ And you’re like, ‘but you haven’t even heard me. You’re not listening to what I’m telling you is the problem.’ The doctor’s saying, ‘no, you’re totally normal, everything’s fine, you don’t need treatment. Maybe just move more and eat less.’ Think about it in those terms. Are you being listened to? Are they really understanding your problem? If a plumber comes into your house and you’re like, ‘I really think there’s a leak somewhere. But we hear this over here,’ and they’re like, ‘okay, here’s a cost estimate for all brand new copper piping.’ You’re like, ‘no, that’s not what I’m asking you for.’ Katie Robbert – 26:42 The key in these interviews, if you’re looking to bring on an AI expert, is: are they really listening to you and are they really understanding the problem that’s going to demonstrate their level of expertise? Christopher S. Penn – 26:54 Yep. And if you’re growing your own experts, sit down with the people that you want to become experts and A) ask them if they want to do it—that part does matter. And then B) ask them. You can use AI for this. It’s a phenomenal use case for it, of course. What is your learning journey going to be? How are you going to focus your learning so that you solve the problems? The purpose that we’ve outlined: ‘yeah, our organization, we know that our sales is our biggest blockage or finance is our biggest blockage or whatever.’ Start there and say, ‘okay, now your learning journey is going to be focused on how is AI being used to solve these kinds of problems. Dig into the technologies, dig into best practices and things.’ Christopher S. Penn – 27:42 But just saying, ‘go learn AI’ is also a recipe for disaster. Katie Robbert – 27:47 Yeah. Because, what about AI? Do you need to learn prompt engineering? Do you need to learn the different use cases? Do you need to learn the actual how the models work, any algorithms? Or, pick a thing—pick a Decepticon and go learn it. But you need to be specific. Are you a Transformer or are you a Decepticon? And which one do you need to learn? That’s going to be my example from now on, Chris, to try to explain AI because they sound like technical terms, and in the wrong audience, someone’s going to think I’m an AI expert. So I think that’s going to be my test. Christopher S. Penn – 28:23 Yes. Comment guide on our LinkedIn. Katie Robbert – 28:27 That’s a whole. Christopher S. Penn – 28:29 All right, so, wrapping up whether you buy or build—which is effectively what we’re discussing here—for AI expertise, you’ve got to go through the 5Ps first. You’ve got to build some user stories. You’ve got to think about the skills that are not AI, that the person needs to have: critical thinking, good communication, the ability to ask great questions, the ability to learn quickly inside and outside of their domain, the ability to be essentially great employees or contractors, no matter what—whether it’s a plumber, whether it’s a doctor, whether it’s an AI expert. None of that changes. Any final parting thoughts, Katie? Katie Robbert – 29:15 Take your time. Which sounds counterintuitive because we all feel that AI is changing so rapidly that we’re falling behind. Now is the time to take your time and really think about what it is you’re trying to do with AI. Because if you rush into something, if you hire the wrong people, it’s a lot of money, it’s a lot of headache, and then you end up having to start over. We’ve had talks with prospects and clients who did just that, and it comes from ‘we’re just trying to keep up,’ ‘we’re trying to do it quickly,’ ‘we’re trying to do it faster,’ and that’s when mistakes are made. Christopher S. Penn – 29:50 What’s the expression? ‘Hire slow, fire fast.’ Something along those lines. Take your time to really make good choices with the people. Because your AI strategy—at some point you’re gonna start making investments—and then you get stuck with those investments for potentially quite some time.

Artwork from Key of Dreams When you're working on a project with other people, a comic collaboration for example, it's usually best to decide on different roles for everyone according to what they're best at (writer, artist, layout design, pencils, inks, colour, backgrounds lettering etc), and let them handle it. You don't micromanage and make decisions for them. Basically they're the “experts” on those things now so you wait and see what they do. The idea for this Quackcast came to me after someone defended the super clunky Star Wars prequels with the old argument that George Lucas created them and he also created the original Star Wars so he must know best and certainly better than any “haters”. In reality though the prequels are an excellent example of why you MUST defer to people who know better. The original trilogy of Star Wars movies were created at a time when George was still a small fish in a big pond, he wasn't powerful or rich enough to have much control in the industry at that stage. He came up with great ideas (Star Wars, Indiana Jones etc), but had to rely on the studio system to get them made, which meant he had to collaborate with people who's job it was to make great movies: directors, script editors, Foley artists, casting directors, concept designers, model makers etc. As well as studio execs and producers. He had to compromise on what was feasible. But after the massive success of the movies, making a mint off of the sale of IP and merchandising, and his SFX studio Industrial Light and Magic being the industry standard, many years later when Luca worked on the prequels he had unrivalled power. He didn't have to defer to anyone anymore, he didn't have to collaborate or make compromises. He was the last word and he knew best… Except he didn't. In the years since he made those initial movies he hadn't directed much or written many scripts and the Prequels show that all too well with bad dialogue, clunky direction, bad plot choices etc. He even got rid of his expert model makers and all the work they did and used CGI instead because it gave him more control. TL,DR: The original Star Wars were good because they were made as collaborative projects by very experienced people while the prequels were mainly controlled by a guy who lacked a lot of expertise and it shows. The Dunning Kruger effect makes us think we're experts in things we only know a little about, ALL of us suffer from it constantly, even me, but when you've had some success in a field: that gives you confirmation bias that “proves” you really ARE an expert. This was Lucas's position during the prequels. I've worked in 2 collabs recently, Bottomless Waitress with Banes and Key of Dreams with Tantz and Banes. On both those projects we all have distinct roles and we stuck with them very easily! We worked within them and didn't ever bump into each other or try and take over anyone's role and so these are good examples of smooth collaborations which produce results people like. Bands are great examples of collaborative projects, especially when they're working with people who all get the chance to shine and handle their own roles. This is why I love Led zeppelin so much: back in the day Jimmy Page was the band leader and lead guitarist but he let each member handle what they were best at in their own way so it worked as a group of collaborative experts and you can really hear that in the sound! I ramble because I'm tired and I have a headache but I think this is an interesting point: You can't be an expert at everything so when you work with others let them handle what they do best and you do what you do best. There are many examples of great collaborative projects where many people working on them are great at what they do and come together to produce something magical. Some of my faves are Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds (rock opera), Led Zeppelin, The Life of Brian, The Empire Strikes Back and more… What are yours? This week it's another best off from Gunwallace!

Charles Darwin once wrote that “Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge”, and real-life situations which reflect that are all too common. To cite just one prominent example, in January 1995, American men MacArthur Wheeler and Clifton Earl Johnson were arrested after carrying out coordinated bank robberies in the state of Pennsylvania. Incredibly, they didn't bother wearing masks, as they believed that rubbing lemon juice on their faces would make them invisible to security cameras. Actually no, but bear with me; I'm getting there. The case got a lot of media coverage, and piqued the curiosity of social psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger at Cornell University. They wanted to know how on earth someone could be so damn sure of themselves while believing something completely stupid. Where does this effect come from? Is that what the Dunning and Kruger effect is then? What are the consequences of the Dunning Kruger effect? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Today, we're talking about a new phenomenon that affects social interactions. Phubbing is something we've all likely experienced or done ourselves at some point. The term is a portmanteau of "phone" and "snubbing", and refers to the act of looking at your phone instead of paying attention to someone else in a social situation. It's becoming increasingly common as our reliance on our mobile devices continues to grow. The term was first introduced in 2012 by Australian advertising agency Maccann Erickson, as part of a campaign for the Macquarie Dictionary. The “A Word is Born” campaign was designed to demonstrate that language is constantly evolving and hence having an up-to-date dictionary is important. Where does the term come from? Why do people phub then? How can we avoid phubbing someone? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

In this deeply empathetic episode, Frank Vasquez responds to a listener who's lost nearly everything through leveraged investments caught in market turmoil. His compassionate yet practical response offers a roadmap back from financial devastation, emphasizing that starting from net worth zero with income potential creates a foundation many successful investors have built upon.The conversation shifts to examining the psychology behind financial social media, where Frank taxonomizes poster behaviors into revealing categories. From genuine question-askers to Dunning-Kruger sufferers repeating harmful advice from financial media marketing materials disguised as guidance, this analysis helps listeners navigate confusing information landscapes. His take on affirmation-seekers posting humble brags or seeking validation for poor decisions provides particular insight into why certain destructive financial ideas persist online.With inflation concerns mounting due to potential tariffs and immigration restrictions, Frank offers practical portfolio protection strategies beyond traditional TIPS, which merely help investors tread water rather than outperform during inflationary periods. His breakdown of managed futures, commodities, value-tilted stocks in hard assets, and property/casualty insurance companies provides actionable alternatives. The discussion culminates in comparing investment theorist Paul Merriman's value-tilted ETF recommendations with Frank's diversification approach using Shannon's Demon principles, demonstrating how different philosophical frameworks can lead to successful long-term investing.What distinguishes this episode is Frank's ability to balance technical expertise with emotional intelligence, offering not just investment strategies but wisdom about resilience and perspective during financial hardship. Whether you're recovering from losses or preparing for economic uncertainty, this episode delivers both tactical guidance and reassuring wisdom from someone who's weathered financial storms himself.Have questions?

[WEEKENED RECAP 04-05-25] I often wondered if Leftism had a syndrome or something, so I looked it up. Leftism is defined in part by the Dunning-Kruger effect. The Dunning-Kruger effect is the scientific term for "clueless people who think they're experts." It's the reason your uncle at Thanksgiving rants about geopolitics despite never having left his hometown, or why that guy on Twitter with 12 followers declares himself a "thought leader."As Charles Darwin (who definitely didn't suffer from this) once wrote: "Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge." In other words: The less someone knows about a subject, the more certain they are about the subject. How It Works (Or, More Accurately, How It Fails) Psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger proved something obvious but depressing: The worst performers are the least capable of recognizing their own incompetence. That's why they consistently view themselves as better, more capable, and more knowledgeable than others.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias that refers to the tendency of individuals with low ability or expertise in a particular domain to overestimate their competence and mistakenly believe they possess above-average skills. At the same time, those who are highly skilled or knowledgeable in a specific area tend to underestimate their abilities and assume others are equally capable.The effect was first identified by psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger in 1999 through a series of experiments. They found that people who performed poorly on tasks related to humor, grammar, and logic consistently rated their abilities higher than they actually were. Conversely, individuals who performed well on these tasks tended to underestimate their performance relative to others.The Dunning-Kruger effect can be attributed to a lack of metacognitive skills, which refers to one's ability to accurately evaluate their own competence. Incompetent individuals often fail to recognize their own limitations because they lack the necessary expertise to accurately assess their own performance. This leads them to overestimate their abilities and be unaware of their shortcomings.Another contributing factor to the Dunning-Kruger effect is the cognitive bias of illusory superiority.This bias causes individuals to believe they are better than average in various aspects of life, regardless of their actual skill level. This bias is particularly strong among those with limited knowledge or experience in a particular area.Interestingly, as individuals gain more expertise and knowledge in a specific domain, they tend to become more aware of the complexities and nuances involved.This increased awareness leads to a more accurate self-assessment of their abilities and often results in a decrease in overconfidence.The implications of the Dunning-Kruger effect can be far-reaching. Incompetent individuals who overestimate their abilities may take on tasks or responsibilities beyond their capabilities, leading to poor decision-making or ineffective performance. Additionally, the effect can hinder individuals from seeking feedback or further education, as they believe they already possess sufficient expertise.In this episode, we take a look at how this applies to the Jeffrey Epstein case and how the legacy media overall continues to miss the overall picture.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:What you WEREN'T told about Jeffery Epstein - TheBlazeBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Today, we unpack the book "Think Again" by Adam Grant.In this book profile, we explore the transformative power of rethinking and why our ability to change our minds may be our most valuable skill in a rapidly changing world. Charles breaks down Grant's compelling case for intellectual humility and how clinging to outdated knowledge and beliefs can limit our potential. Through practical examples and research-backed insights, the episode reveals how leaders, innovators, and individuals can cultivate the habit of questioning what they know and embrace the uncomfortable but rewarding process of continuous learning.Key topics include:• The three mental modes that prevent rethinking - preacher, prosecutor, and politician - and why we should adopt the scientist mindset instead• How misplaced confidence and the Dunning-Kruger effect lead even intelligent people to overestimate their knowledge• The difference between harmful relationship conflict and productive task conflict in debates and disagreements• Techniques for changing minds effectively without triggering defensiveness or psychological reactance• Why stereotypes limit our thinking and how to break free from binary biases that oversimplify complex realitiesLearn from Charles's breakdown how to detach your identity from your opinions, escape the trap of certainty, and create learning cultures that value rethinking over being right.

Life is short; you either have your reasons or your results.In this solo chitchat episode, I record from my car and share what's really been on my heart lately: how the realization that we're not promised more times has lit a fire in me to stop playing small, start acting boldly, and fully trust God even when outcomes are uncertain.This isn't about hustle for hustle's sake, but about stewarding the season you're in, whether you're waiting for a breakthrough in your career or navigating growing challenges in your calling.I talk about:The real reason why I've been working with urgency latelyWhat I've learned listening to people in their 40s, 50s, and 60s wish they started soonerWhy “life is short” is NOT a clichéHow the Dunning-Kruger effect shows up in your callingAnd why I believe now more than ever: your reasons won't comfort you in the end, only your results will

[EP 25-131] I'm going to discuss the old saying, “You don't know what you don't know.” I looked it up and it's called The Dunning-Kruger effect. It's a nuanced version of that earlier statement, more akin to “people who know the least think they know the most.” I will use the Trump haters as an example.Don't like Trump, I understand. Sometimes we just don't like people. That's natural. Sometimes it's the way they remind us of someone else whom we've dealt with.But generally speaking, we can learn to overlook that if the person performs. Now “performs” is a matter of opinion. So what's good for Conservatives may not be perceived as good for Leftists, whom I will be picking on soon. But is there a universal truth on which we should all agree regardless of politics? Conservatives certainly think so. Limited government. Accountability. And so on. But delving one layer deeper, don't you think all people agree that vicious criminals should be locked up. Or in the case of illegals, deported?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias that refers to the tendency of individuals with low ability or expertise in a particular domain to overestimate their competence and mistakenly believe they possess above-average skills. At the same time, those who are highly skilled or knowledgeable in a specific area tend to underestimate their abilities and assume others are equally capable.The effect was first identified by psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger in 1999 through a series of experiments. They found that people who performed poorly on tasks related to humor, grammar, and logic consistently rated their abilities higher than they actually were. Conversely, individuals who performed well on these tasks tended to underestimate their performance relative to others.The Dunning-Kruger effect can be attributed to a lack of metacognitive skills, which refers to one's ability to accurately evaluate their own competence. Incompetent individuals often fail to recognize their own limitations because they lack the necessary expertise to accurately assess their own performance. This leads them to overestimate their abilities and be unaware of their shortcomings.Another contributing factor to the Dunning-Kruger effect is the cognitive bias of illusory superiority.This bias causes individuals to believe they are better than average in various aspects of life, regardless of their actual skill level. This bias is particularly strong among those with limited knowledge or experience in a particular area.Interestingly, as individuals gain more expertise and knowledge in a specific domain, they tend to become more aware of the complexities and nuances involved.This increased awareness leads to a more accurate self-assessment of their abilities and often results in a decrease in overconfidence.The implications of the Dunning-Kruger effect can be far-reaching. Incompetent individuals who overestimate their abilities may take on tasks or responsibilities beyond their capabilities, leading to poor decision-making or ineffective performance. Additionally, the effect can hinder individuals from seeking feedback or further education, as they believe they already possess sufficient expertise.In this episode, we take a look at how this applies to the Jeffrey Epstein case and how the legacy media overall continues to miss the overall picture.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:What you WEREN'T told about Jeffery Epstein - TheBlazeBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

This episode explores the concept of Chesterton's fence, a principle that advises against removing or altering something without first understanding its original purpose.• Understand the core message of Chesterton's fence: before getting rid of an existing system, process, or code, take the time to understand why it was put there in the first place.• Learn about the common thought process that leads to wanting to remove things without understanding them ("Why on earth would anyone ever do it this way?").• Discover the parable of Chesterton's fence: the more intelligent reformer questions the removal of a fence until its use is understood.• See an analogy in code review where a senior engineer might question the removal of code or tests without understanding their purpose.• Understand the cognitive bias of illusory superiority and the Dunning-Kruger effect, which can lead to overestimating one's own abilities and underestimating the reasoning behind existing systems.• Recognise the mistake of assuming that predecessors were incompetent and that their work was done in error.• Appreciate the importance of adopting a curious mindset and trying to understand the original reasons behind existing practices.• Understand that Chesterton's fence is not a justification for never changing anything, but a caution against recklessness and the importance of being informed.• Learn that even when deciding to remove something, understanding its purpose can lead to better decisions and improvements in the future (e.g., replacing an old test with a better one).• Realise the value of learning from the experiences and reasoning of those who came before.

Joined on this episode by one of the first ten guests of the Scrap... Mr. Fire Inside himself... Marc Aloan. It was an amazing episode as we dep dive into followership and craftmanship and the decline of the importance of tenure in modern society.  We  discuss Dunning/Kruger and how it plays a part. Impact Vs. image and which one does your department care about? Quality Vs. Quantity and how it goes into everything including calls and our approach to personnel.  It promises to be an awesome discussion and that does not even include all of the amazing questions that we got from the live audience!  

What if confidence isn't about being sure of yourself but taking action before you feel ready? In today's episode, Kevin and Alan explain what confidence means and why it's linked to feeling in control. Kevin shares a personal breakthrough from a recent speech, while Alan explains how confidence grows through experience—not before it. They also discuss the struggle between self-awareness and self-doubt, why some people overestimate their skills, and how true confidence develops over time.Learn more about:Next Level Live 2025: Saturday, April 5th, 2024 (10:00 am to 4:00 pm EST)  - https://bit.ly/4aTwC7Q_____________________NLU is not just a podcast; it's a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.

How future doctors are navigating social media's impact on public education. How can a well-meaning medfluencer be sure they're actually helping? M1 Zach Grissom, M2 Fallon Jung, M3 Jeff Goddard, and M4 Matt Engelken sit down with third-year DO student Nik Bletnitsky to discuss the role of social media in medical education. Current and Future doctors are increasingly using these platforms to share medical knowledge—but, even if you're careful to offer the best information, what are the hidden dangers? The conversation covers the sometimes blurry line between education, misinformation, and contradicting someone's doctor's advice. How disclaimers work (or don't), and why the Dunning-Kruger effect can turn a curious patient into an overconfident self-diagnoser. Should doctors be influencers? Can patients trust what they see online? And is it possible to make medical knowledge accessible without accidentally making things worse?

Hi, in this episode Ben will discuss the Dunning Kruger effect. A cognitive bias that was created in 1999 by David Dunning and Justin Kruger. It gives a graphical representation of the development when learning new things. It's very applicable to us divers, as we can easily become the victim of incomplete education and/or a false sense of security by our own doing. For more information, contact us here:https://utdscubadiving.com/contact/Here is a link to the graph:https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/46/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_Effect_01.svgHere are the videos:Episode 1: https://youtu.be/h-elWmoQ3I0?si=QT2380wwAeOCwTPgEpisode 2: https://youtu.be/zRc-2kADCrI?si=kJENf3TP_tcdAA0PEpisode 3: https://youtu.be/Gl4vf6UyLgc?si=BgJlMDfIj-vaOoCz

El sábado vimos con asombro  a un coronel de apellido Ramírez paralizar la conmemoración del 8 de marzo porque un grupo de mujeres negras de Monte Plata cantaba la salve “Aguacero va a llover” y el oído del policía lo escuchaba en creole. El comandante Ramírez dijo que él no permitiría eso y desconectó las bocinas.Suspender una actividad de esa naturaleza no ocurría en la RD desde los 12 años, pero la reformada policía de Luis Abinader lo hace.Nunca hemos  esperado mucho de la policía dominicana por más anuncios que se hagan porque el autoritarismo está en su origen y no hay manera que con cursos y talleres se supere lo que es intrínseco de una institución o persona.Pero escuchar a supuestos comunicadores que dicen tener títulos universitarios decir que el baile de palos o los atabales atentan contra los valores crisitianos de la REpública Dominicana me mueve a risa pero por otro lado me preocupa porque hay demasiado gente a quienes  como dijo Humberto Eco"Las redes sociales le dan el derecho de hablar a legiones de idiotas que primero hablaban sólo en el bar después de un vaso de vino, sin dañar a la comunidad. Ellos eran silenciados rápidamente y ahora tienen el mismo derecho a hablar que un premio Nobel. Es la invasión de los idiotas"No soy quien para decir que Eco a quien conocí en los 80 porque su análisis semiótico “La estructura Ausente” era texto en la escuela de comunicación de la UASD fue tremendista.En estos días las empresas andan persiguiendo el efecto Dunning-Kruger que se define como la percepción que una persona con escasos conocimientos tiene de sí misma al creer que sabe más de lo que en realidad conoce. Este tipo de individuos suele opinar acerca de todo sin tener un conocimiento adecuado de las materias que se tratan.Ese fenómeno descrito a mitad del siglo pasado muestra por oposición a la persona de alta formación que precisamente por su nivel de conocimiento siempre duda. Los test laborales andan buscando eso por el daño que suele provocar en las corporaciones.Las redes están llenas de personas que saben más de medicinas que los médicos, más de música que los músicos y que se atreven a hablar y a opinar de lo que sea. Parafraseando a Eco los manager de gradería que ahora opinan en las redes lo que antes se teorizaba en los colmadones.Yo tendría 8 o 9 años la primera vez que oi del profesor Julio Gautreau la palabra “atabal” que no se usa en el sur del país donde simplemente se llaman palos.Atabal es una palabra hispánica de origen árabe que quiere decir tambor y en RD se usa sobre todo en la región este para definir las fiesta de Palos. El cibao y el sur usan el término palos.Los palos o atabales nos han acompañado a lo largo de la historia y no hay provincia dominicana en la que estén ausentes. Eso está comprobando en varias investigaciones de gente muy seria que no sabe de todo como los opinadores en boga.DEcir que los atabales son propios de los haitianos evidencia un analfabetismo cultural y una expresión del síndrome aquel del que cree que lo sabe todo. Aquí se tocan atabales desde la era colonial frente a la iglesia del Seibo, en poblados de mayoría blanquita como cañafistol en Baní y Monte Adentro en Salcedo. Se tocan en la sierra y los dominicanos lo han llevado a EStados Unidos, Canadá y España. Que penoso es que gente que no sabe de una cosa haga el ridículo escribiendo o hablando de todo y cuanto daño nos hace.

Those of who work in learning and development like to think we're in the business of behavior change. But we often don't have an in-depth understanding of what current behaviors are, or how to change them.  In this week's episode of The Mindtools L&D Podcast, Ross Garner is joined by Ross Dickie and Dr Anna Barnett to discuss:  methods understanding behavior;  digital learning methods for changing behavior;  methods for measuring change.  During the discussion, Ross Garner described the Dunning-Kruger effect.  Ross Dickie mentioned libertarian paternalism, very much a friend-of-the-show.  Anna referenced the COM-B model of behavior change.  In ‘What I Learned This Week', Anna recommended a presentation from the Behavioral Insights Team, and Ross G referenced his video on nudge theory.  Ross Dickie discussed Jevon's paradox, based on Satya Nadella's tweet about Chinese AI firm DeepSeek.  And Ross Garner recommended a thread on X, where famous movie scenes are recreated as Lego.  For more from us, visit mindtools.com.

¡EN DIRECTO! Síndrome del Impostor vs. Síndrome del Fanfarrón: ¿Cómo afectan nuestras percepciones? En este directo, exploraremos dos conceptos psicológicos que parecen polos opuestos pero que tienen mucho en común: el síndrome del impostor y el efecto Dunning-Kruger, también conocido como “el síndrome del fanfarrón”. ¿Qué es el síndrome del impostor? Esa sensación de no ser lo suficientemente bueno o competente, incluso cuando la evidencia demuestra lo contrario. Es una experiencia común en personas altamente capacitadas y perfeccionistas. ¿Y el efecto Dunning-Kruger? Por el contrario, este efecto se caracteriza por la sobreestimación de las habilidades propias, donde personas con poca experiencia o conocimientos creen tener un dominio absoluto sobre un tema. Durante este directo abordaremos: ✅ ¿Por qué algunos dudan de sí mismos y otros tienen una confianza desbordante? ✅ El impacto de estos síndromes en la autoestima y la productividad. ✅ Herramientas para equilibrar nuestra percepción de capacidades y evitar caer en extremos. ️ Participa en el chat en vivo y comparte tus experiencias con estos fenómenos. ¿Te has sentido alguna vez como un impostor? ¿O conoces a alguien que siempre actúa como si lo supiera todo? Este tema es fundamental para el crecimiento personal y profesional, y te daremos tips para manejar mejor tu autoconfianza y autopercepción.

Jesse kicks today's show off with a monologue on the importance of having the right temperament for investing - it's not really about intelligence at all. Emotional stability and disciplined decision making outweigh expertise and intelligence when investing. The Dunning-Kruger effect and the paradox of choice are also highlighted, emphasizing the need to prioritize action over perfection in personal finance. For the second half of the show, Dr. Brad Klontz, Co-Founder of the Financial Psychology Institute and author of Start Thinking Rich, joins to discuss “money scripts”, which are subconscious beliefs about money inherited from previous generations, our society, or other people we're surrounded by. Throughout the conversation, the duo dispels myths about wealth, and makes a distinction between being “poor” (a limiting mindset) and being “broke” (a temporary financial state). The conversation gets deep into the stories we tell ourselves, how we present money, and how to adopt an internal locus of control and make lifestyle changes.  This episode is a must listen for anyone wanting to explore their own “money scripts” and rethink the way they talk to themselves - and others - about money. Key Takeaways:• How the Dunning-Kruger effect is affecting your investing decisions. • The difference between a satisficer and a maximizer - and why you may want to be the former. • What is a “money script”? And how can you change yours? • The patterns you may have inherited from even your great grandparents. • Consider how you rank on the following four patterns: avoidance, worship, vigilance, and status. • Research backed psychological insights about your relationship with money.

A father is concerned that comics no longer reach kids, suggesting that video games are the better value measured by engagement time. What can we do to reverse this trend? On today's showHow can comics reach kids?UPDATE: Buffer (see addendum below)How can I avoid Trump's tariffs? (see other addendum below)AddendumOne day after we recorded the drop that explained that Buffer did not support video uploads, they made an announcement. You guessed it — they've added that functionality. They still do not support adding content moderation labels.Other addendumDuring the campaign, President Trump made tariffs a large part of his platform. He pitched a wide range of tariffs and scenarios. He suggested a tariff of between 60 and 100% on goods imported from China, a tariff on cars imported from Mexico that ranged from 100% to 200%, he threatened John Deere with a 200% tariff if they outsourced to Mexico. During our discussion, we took the worst-case scenario — 200%. On Nov. 26, Trump solidified his economic plans, promising executive orders on Day One that would levy a 25% tariff on imports from Mexico and Canada with an additional 10% tax on Chinese imports. The upshot of the conversation remains the same: These costs will be passed along to American consumers and businesspeople (like us), and you would be wise to build these additional expenditures into any Kickstarter campaigns you have planned for 2025.SummaryIn this conversation, the hosts explore how parents can encourage reading among kids, the value of libraries, and community initiatives to promote access to books.
