[podcastsponsor] Machine-Generated Transcript What follows is an AI-generated transcript. The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn: In this week’s In Ear Insights. This week, let’s talk about something that has been on Katie’s mind— the differences between cognitive offloading and cognitive enhancing with AI becoming as capable as it is with today’s latest agentic frameworks that can literally just pick up a task and run with it. We talked about it last week on the podcast and live stream, which you can find on the Trust Insights YouTube channel. Go to Trust Insights AI YouTube. These tools are incredibly powerful. You can literally say, “Here’s the project plan,” and just come back to me in 45 minutes. Katie Robbert: Your concerns are, if the machine is just going to go off and do a great job with these tasks, what’s left for us and what does that mean for our own cognitive capabilities and how we might deskill. And I want to highlight what you said—that these things are going to do a quote‑unquote great job. That’s a big caveat. Over the past couple of weeks, especially with Claude from Anthropic, they have launched a lot of functionality into their system. You can use the web version to set up projects and artifacts and have the chat, or you can use the desktop version, now available for Windows and Mac. It was only available for Mac at first; now it's also available for Windows, so it's all inclusive. Everybody gets in on the fun, and you have chat, cowork, and code. One early warning sign I'm seeing is that Claude now has plugins baked into its desktop version. These plugins cover areas like marketing, legal, and executive, and you can even make your own plugins. We made our 5Ps plugin. You can also take the skills you have built on the web version and bring them into the desktop version. You can have a co‑CEO, a voice of customer, a fact‑checker— the one that Chris really likes—and all of these things. Chris, you did this last week as an experiment: a virtual focus group with many different players from our voice of customer. Our ideal customer profile includes small, medium, and large businesses, with roles ranging from directors and managers to executives and marketers. You wanted to create virtual versions of all these personas and have them do a focus group with the co‑CEO, which for all intents and purposes is me, and then review the results—a fun experiment. But my first inclination is, whoa, hold on—a human is missing. If you let the machine duke it out unsupervised and then present the response, that is potentially problematic because you've offloaded not only the manual tasks but also the thinking. The machine is only as good as the personas you program in, with your own bias, whether you realize it or not. It will act the way you ask it to, not the way real humans act, and real humans can be completely unpredictable. We need that unpredictability to get a good result. So are we going too far with offloading human tasks to large language models because it's convenient? Christopher S. Penn: Oh, we absolutely are. Christopher S. Penn: One of the things I discuss with our clients—an education class—is how AI is rewiring people’s brains. I had a fun interaction with a high‑school student locally. I asked how they use generative AI. They said the school banned ChatGPT, so they all just use DeepSeek instead. They have it do everything and have learned tricks to avoid the school's AI detector software, which isn't particularly good. Humans, like animals, take the easiest route because it's a basic survival mechanism. You don't spend more energy on a task than you have to, because in the wild you never know where your next meal is coming from. That's why cats lounge for hours and then become lunatics for a few; the same goes for dogs and humans. Students use the easiest pathway out of a task, especially if it's a task they don't want to do. That is probably where we'll first see off‑loading and deskilling—in the things we don't enjoy doing, according to the Trust Insights TRIPS framework. One of the five dimensions of the TRIPS framework is pain: how painful a task is. If a task is something we genuinely enjoy—playing music, painting, dancing—we won't want to off‑skill it because we enjoy the doing. If the task is painful, like having 28 blog posts due tomorrow and sitting in endless meetings, you'll hand it off to the machine because you don't want to do it in the first place. Instead of procrastinating, AI will do it 96 % as well as you. Does it risk deskilling and losing those skills? Yes, absolutely. Ask anyone under 30 who has not served in the military to use a compass and a map, and you'll see shocked faces because we've forgotten how to use maps. So there is definitely deskilling. The question is whether people are deskilling on tasks that require human review. In the example you gave about legal work, I had four agents converse, and when I read the transcript I learned something I didn't know. I didn't know that legal construct existed, so I Googled it to fact‑check. Katie Robbert: Let me pose it this way—we're deskilling. In the example of having 28 blog posts, or simply not wanting to do a task, maybe it's a generational thing. But I'm old—well, I'm in the same generation as you, Chris. I didn't realize we had a choice not to do things we didn't want to do. Technology and culture have changed how we work professionally, but I still think we should learn how to do things even if we don't end up doing them ourselves. Because let's say I don't know how to edit, stage, and deliver blog posts to a client. I've never done it; the machine has always done it. What happens if the machine breaks? What happens if the models change? Your manager will look to you and say, “You need to step in.” When the machines are down, we still have to hit those deadlines. My concern is that even if we're not the ones doing the work at the end of the day, we should still have a basic understanding of how the thing is done. That ties into frameworks such as the 5P framework—purpose, people, process, performance. If you don't have a basic structure for how something is done, and tomorrow Claude implodes and you've built your whole business around it, you'll be left without insider information. I'm not saying that will happen, but it's a purely hypothetical scenario that makes you ask, “What do I do?” I don't know how to run a focus group, engage with humans for voice‑of‑customer data, or research trademark laws and regulations. You become so reliant on machines that you don't even learn the basics. You don't need to be a legal expert, but you should be able to read something. There should be a basic process so that if the machines fail, a human can pick it up, figure it out, and do it. It's basic redundancy and business continuity. I think we're skipping those backup plans because we're overly confident that large language models will never fail. That confidence is a huge risk for businesses that don't step back and say, “Yes, we can have these machines do the work, but let's also have a foundation for how it's done if the power goes out, the model changes, or it becomes cost‑prohibitive.” So I'm worried about deskilling, but I'm also concerned that businesses are becoming so reliant on software that they forget software is just that—it fails, it's buggy, and it makes a lot of mistakes. Christopher S. Penn: One of the things I strongly recommend is an Instant Insights piece on the Trust Insights website—my framework for this surprise, which I call the four R's. The four components you should have for any project are: 1. Research—knowledge that is written down, not just in your head. 2. Requirements—a document that defines what constitutes “done” at the very minimum. 3. Rules—what is and isn't allowed, such as the Trust Insights writing style that outlines how we should and shouldn't sound. 4. Recipe—an operating procedure, whether AI‑based or not, that is written down. These four documents—research, requirements, rules, and recipe—allow you to delegate work to a human because everything is clear and standardized. The recipe shows step‑by‑step exactly what's supposed to happen; if it's unclear, you'll get wildly bad results. If you take the time to write out the four R's, and they're saved and clear, you can still get work done even if an EMP knocks out the grid or your provider goes down. You could switch providers and still get consistent results because you're not doing one‑off things. This is part of the five Ps—process is one of the five Ps—so no matter what happens, you have the ability to keep going. Doing things ad hoc leads to forgetting how you did them the last time, which hinders repeatable success and scalability. If you have the discipline to build the four R's for any project, even something as small as editing this newsletter article, you'll have the backup you're talking about. Katie Robbert: You're missing an R—the fifth R is Review, which means human intervention. That ties back to my original concern about being too reliant on machines. Even if you go through the four R's and feel confident in the output, you might set an example for team members to skip the review process, assuming the machine's output is good enough to ship to the client. If the client then says, “Did you screw this up?” you could get fired. You need a human review to go back through each stage and say, “This doesn't make sense,” or “This isn't right.” That human review is a big part of the concern, along with redundancy for machine failures. The focus group experiment was entirely synthetic, including me. I would have happily participated as the human to keep it on the rails, saying, “I don't think this is going in the right direction.” Human intervention is essential, especially for core business tasks. We're becoming so reliant on software to deliver outstanding outputs that we think, “The machine did it; I don't even have to participate.” I can just push a button, get everything done, and go get a latte. That's going to be a huge problem. Eventually, natural selection will favor people who remain intimately involved with the software process over those who have outsourced everything to AI. Christopher S. Penn: I agree. In the hyper‑capitalistic hellscape we live in, productivity is the only thing that matters, and people are clearing their to‑do lists as fast as possible, often juggling three jobs for the salary of one. This pressure forces people to outsource their executive function to machines. When you look at newsrooms, for example, clients are under incredible pressure to crank out content, get things done, and move to the next item on the list, to the point where they're so stressed they lose executive function. The more stressed you are, the more cortisol you have, which puts your brain into fight‑or‑flight mode. Your ability to step back, think, and bring out the best parts of your humanity is diminished by that level of stress. So people outsource their executive function to machines. Whether or not you have a clinical diagnosis of ADHD, if you're under enough stress, your executive function essentially goes to hell. Here's a question: for someone whose executive function is impaired by stress or anxiety, is it better to have a machine take on that executive function? Katie Robbert: That goes back to the TRIPS framework—time, repetitiveness, importance. You need to understand the risk to the company. If someone asks you to type up meeting notes, that's a low‑risk, internal task. An AI transcript can do that without outsourcing executive function. The risk assessment depends on whether the task is internal, client‑facing, tied directly to money, involves sensitive data, is part of a regulatory system, or underpins your IT foundation. Companies need to evaluate those risks. Often they design a process where a button loads 20 blog posts at a time and delivers them to the client website. The repetitiveness and time required make it a good AI candidate, but the importance is high because it's client‑facing and tied to revenue. If you post the wrong content or an unedited piece, the client will be angry and you could be fired. So importance isn't just about how much you don't want to do; it's also about the risk to the company. Christopher S. Penn: In a future episode I want to talk about comparable skill levels with AI to wrap up today's discussion. There is a risk and downside to offloading everything, no matter how much pressure you're under. Using frameworks like the Trust Insights TRIPS framework or the 5Ps will help you reduce that risk and identify when a human should be part of the process.

In this first part of a two-part series, Jeff and Luca explore how different types of service-oriented engineering organizations should focus their learning and improvement efforts. Drawing from their consulting experience, they examine three distinct categories: product development firms that turn client ideas into reality, engineering development firms that sell specialized technical expertise, and solo engineers who package all necessary knowledge into one person.The core insight: what you should focus on learning depends entirely on what you're actually selling. Product development firms need to master the entire client journey and product design process, not just engineering excellence. Engineering development firms must become technical wizards in a specific domain that clients actually value. Solo engineers face the challenge of needing deep expertise while wearing every business hat. Across all three types, the common traps are the same: focusing too much on craft and too little on client experience, failing to specialize, and not investing enough in teaching as marketing.Throughout the discussion, Jeff and Luca emphasize that for service firms, you are the product - and that changes everything about where you should direct your improvement efforts. The conversation is grounded in real experiences, including some cautionary tales about firms that tried to be everything to everyone.Key Topics[00:00] Introduction: Two-part series on engineering organizations and their different focuses[02:30] Overview of the framework: Service firms vs. product-building companies[05:15] Product development firms: Why engineering excellence isn't enough[08:45] The critical importance of product design and client guidance over pure engineering[12:20] Process-level learning: Shortening cycle times and enabling rapid prototyping[15:40] The Irinos example: In-house board manufacturing to tighten feedback loops[18:30] Requirements will always change - designing for learning, not perfection[21:00] The danger of being a generalist: Why specialization matters for service firms[24:15] Engineering development firms: Selling technical expertise, not complete products[27:45] Technology-focused learning: Going deep on specific technical capabilities[30:20] The trap of becoming a commodity: Why domain expertise beats technology alone[33:40] The forklift invoice review example: You can't specialize too narrowly[35:30] Solo engineers: The complete package vs. temporary employee trap[39:00] Common failures across all service firms: Too much craft focus, too little client experience and marketing[41:30] Teaching as the best form of marketing for technical service firmsNotable Quotes"The customers don't actually hire them for their engineering skills. They are sort of a given. But what such a product development firm should offer the client is guiding them through the development process, which they don't have enough skills for to do it on their own." — Luca"Engineering is not the point. The unit of work is delivering a working product to the client that satisfies their business case, that has a reasonable cost to manufacture, and that you feel confident your own client has validated their market." — Jeff"It's not that engineering is irrelevant, but rather that it's table stakes. This is just taken for granted, but what such a product development firm should offer is guiding them through the development process." — Luca"You almost can't be narrow enough. I remember our friend Philip Morgan having this example of a company that specializes in reviewing invoices of forklift repairs. This is what they do. They review forklift repair invoices.

Stuart Young, Program Manager, Tactical Technology Office, DARPA joined Grayson Brulte on The Road to Autonomy podcast to discuss DARPA's RACER (Robotic Autonomy in Complex Environments with Resiliency) Program and the development of high-speed autonomous vehicles capable of navigating unstructured off-road terrain without maps or GPS.The operational backbone of this program is a departure from the breadcrumb approach of the Grand Challenge, challenging robots to navigate complex, unstructured environments at speeds faster than manned formations. By removing the dependency on pre-existing maps and GPS, DARPA is forcing the autonomous systems to generalize across environments.In the field, RACER has rigorously tested platforms ranging from modified Polaris RZRs to Textron M5 tracked vehicles across diverse landscapes, including the Mojave Desert, Camp Roberts, and Fort Hood. This ecosystem has not only spurred the creation of companies such as Overland AI and Field AI but also demonstrated tactical relevance, as seen when the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment utilized RACER technology as an opposition force at the National Training Center.Looking ahead, Stuart envisions a future where autonomy shifts from simple movement to strategic maneuver, enabling a single operator to command platoons of vehicles. This evolution aims to fundamentally change the risk calculus for soldiers while opening new opportunities for dual-use applications in mining, agriculture and search and rescue.Episode Chapters0:00 The History of Autonomy at DARPA: From the Grand Challenge to Today6:54 How RACER Differs from The Grand Challenge11:59 Operating Without Maps or GPS14:00 Managing Heat, Acoustic, and Visual Signatures in Autonomy19:43 Testing in the Mojave, Central California, and Texas25:11 Building the RACER Brain and Spawning New Companies (Overland AI, Field AI)27:12 The Rules of RACER: Speed Metrics and “No Maps” Constraints33:36 The Hardware: Modifying Polaris RZRs and Textron M5 Tanks37:37 Requirements vs. Possibilities40:01 Field Testing with the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment at the National Training Center44:43 Deploying RACER in the Field46:12 The Legacy of RACER: Dual-Use Applications and Saving Lives--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

Gwinnett County Police to host local hiring event Winter storm knocks out power to thousands of Gwinnett homes Parkview grad Quincy Bryant turns NIL experience into financial lifeline for college athletes All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: KIA Mall Of Ga - Sugar Hill Ice Skating Rink Final STORY 1: Gwinnett County Police to host local hiring event Thinking about joining the Gwinnett County Police Department? Here’s your chance—they’re hosting a hiring event on Feb. 6 (3–8 p.m.) and Feb. 7 (8 a.m.–3 p.m.). First things first: submit an application before the event. Once you do, an investigator will call to schedule your appointment. No appointment? You can still show up, but expect a longer wait. And no, you don’t need to attend both days. The process isn’t quick—it can take hours—so plan ahead. Phase I includes orientation, a physical agility test, an interview, a psych exam, and a background check. If you qualify, you might walk away with a conditional job offer. What’s in it for you? A starting salary between $55,923 and $86,090, a 10% hiring bonus, annual raises, and education incentives (up to 6% for a degree). Night Watch officers even get a 5% shift differential. Requirements? Be 21 by academy graduation, have a high school diploma or GED, a valid driver’s license, and be eligible for P.O.S.T. certification. Ready to apply? Visit GwinnettPoliceJobs.com. STORY 2: Winter storm knocks out power to thousands of Gwinnett homes Winter Storm Fern wreaked havoc in Gwinnett County, leaving more than 10,000 residents without power as of Sunday afternoon. Georgia Power reported that, by 5:30 p.m., 9,741 of its customers in the county were in the dark. Peachtree Corners was hit hardest, with 3,120 outages, followed by Berkley Lake and Duluth (1,729), southwest Lawrenceville (1,797), and another 905 near State Route 316. Walton EMC wasn’t spared either—1,771 customers were without power by 5 p.m. The biggest cluster? Along Five Forks Trickum Road, where 767 homes were affected. Jackson EMC also reported 1,067 outages, with 892 concentrated in Lawrenceville. STORY 3: Parkview grad Quincy Bryant turns NIL experience into financial lifeline for college athletes College athletes are making serious money these days, thanks to NIL deals and revenue sharing. But here’s the thing—most of them don’t know what to do with it. Some have advisors, sure, but plenty don’t. Quincy Bryant, a former Parkview football star and Wake Forest standout, saw it all firsthand. Unlike many, he had a plan. While still in college, he invested his NIL earnings, bought a house, and rented it to teammates. Word spread, and soon, everyone was asking him for financial advice. That’s how Final Whistle Wealth was born. Alongside his former teammate Trent Nicholson, Bryant launched the company to help athletes manage their money and plan for life after sports. They started small—one-on-one sessions, then classes—and eventually built a full program with support from Wake Forest’s Startup Lab. Now, they’re developing an app to make budgeting and financial planning easier for athletes. For more, check out www.finalwhistlewealth.com.

We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 7 STORY 4: Gwinnett County to host Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day on Feb. 7 Got old bug spray, paint cans, or that half-empty bottle of weed killer sitting in your garage? You’re not alone. The EPA calls this stuff “household hazardous waste”—basically, anything that can catch fire, explode, corrode, or poison. And no, you can’t just toss it in the trash or pour it down the drain (seriously, don’t). Georgia’s Environmental Protection Division warns that doing so can pollute groundwater, lakes, and streams. That’s where Gwinnett County’s Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day comes in. Since 2018, this biannual event has made it easier for residents to safely ditch their hazardous junk. The first event of 2026 is happening Saturday, Feb. 7, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds in Lawrenceville. Accepted items include spray pesticides, auto fluids, batteries, paint, propane cylinders, and even cooking oil. Not accepted? Ammunition, fireworks, electronics, or biohazard waste. Residents can bring up to five containers of waste for free. For details, visit www.GwinnettCB.org or call 770-822-5187. STORY 5: Gwinnett Grads Julian Ashby, Jared Ivey headed to Super Bowl LX Gwinnett County’s got a guaranteed Super Bowl champ this year, no matter what happens on February 8. Why? Two hometown rookies—Parkview’s Julian Ashby and North Gwinnett’s Jared Ivey—are heading to the big game. Ashby’s Patriots edged out the Broncos 10-7 in a snowy AFC Championship, while Ivey’s Seahawks outlasted the Rams 31-27 for the NFC title. Ashby, a 23-year-old long snapper, was flawless in the storm. Drafted in the seventh round by New England, he’s the first long snapper picked since 2021. Before that? Four solid years at Furman and a standout season at Vanderbilt. Ivey, meanwhile, fought his way onto Seattle’s roster as an undrafted free agent. The 6-foot-6 linebacker didn’t play in the NFC Championship but made his mark at Ole Miss with 125 tackles and 16 sacks after transferring from Georgia Tech. No matter who wins, Gwinnett’s streak of Super Bowl champs—now four years running—stays alive. We’ll be right back. Break 3: EAGLE THEATRE Gentleman’s Guide STORY 6: Dr. William Foege, leader in smallpox eradication, dies Dr. William Foege, the towering figure—literally and figuratively—behind the eradication of smallpox, has passed away at 89. He died Saturday in Atlanta, according to the Task Force for Global Health, which he co-founded. At 6-foot-7, Foege was hard to miss, but it was his brilliance and calm determination that truly set him apart. A former CDC director in the late ’70s and early ’80s, he spent his life battling infectious diseases and reshaping global health. His crowning achievement? Smallpox. In the 1960s, while working as a medical missionary in Nigeria, Foege pioneered the “ring containment” strategy—vaccinating only those in contact with infected individuals. It was a bold, resourceful move born out of necessity (there wasn’t enough vaccine to go around). And it worked. By 1980, the World Health Organization declared smallpox eradicated, saving hundreds of millions of lives. STORY 7: State House to operate minus one member after suspension from office The Georgia General Assembly is down yet another lawmaker this session—this time, it’s State Rep. Sharon Henderson, who’s been suspended after a federal indictment. Governor Brian Kemp signed the suspension Thursday, following a committee’s decision that Henderson’s charges “adversely affect” her ability to serve. She’s accused of two counts of theft of government funds and 10 counts of making false statements tied to federal unemployment benefits during the pandemic. Her case? It’s not moving fast—pretrial’s set for Feb. 19. Meanwhile, former Rep. Karen Bennett, resolved similar charges quickly, pleading guilty to fraudulently claiming $13,940 in pandemic relief. Kemp, required by the state constitution, appointed a review committee for Henderson’s case, including Attorney General Chris Carr, Rep. Jan Jones, and Sen. Harold Jones II. Their findings led to her suspension. With several legislative seats still vacant, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is scheduling special elections, including one for Bennett’s seat on March 10.

Episode 546: The Real Reason Project Requirements Keep Changing

Play audio-only episode | Play on YouTube | Play on Spotify Episode Summary Project requirements rarely change because teams lack discipline. More often, change starts long before a project manager ever joins the work. Early product decisions define priorities, assumptions, and constraints that quietly shape delivery outcomes. In this conversation, Cornelius Fichtner speaks with Lee Fischman about why project managers so often inherit projects that feel impossible and how product thinking influences what gets built, how success is defined, and how much flexibility exists when reality shifts. The discussion connects product management, project execution, and leadership behavior, showing how unclear intent, untested value assumptions, and early commitments lead to ongoing requirement changes later in delivery.
