Description

From the creators of the successful Evolving Leader podcast, comes their new show The Mindset Economy. 

 

The central question this show explores is:
 
 How will we work, live, and belong in a more uncertain world, where machines can think?
 
 The hypothesis behind the show is that as quantitative work - routine, low cognitive work - is automated, Human Advantage will come from qualitative work - creativity, judgement, social intelligence etc. This show explores the changes taking place; how leaders will respond to creation of the new economy being ushered in by the mass adoption of AI, and how we can accelerate Human Advantage.
 
 The Mindset Economy will feature a broad diversity of voices: from leaders at the edge of this transformation to performance scientists and AI thinkers and social philosophers.

As AI increasingly takes over quantitative work, she argues that this...
