AI is making predictions cheaper, faster, and easier at scale. But forecasting is still guessing, and NYU Stern Professor Jamyn Edis argues that what AI can't replace is human judgment. In this conversation, we dig into why defining "intelligence" matters, how business actually works versus how we pretend it works, and what happens when we confuse prediction with decision-making.

Details in the Show:

* Why judgment and intelligence aren't the same thing

* The difference between prediction and decision-making in business

* How AI changes what we measure, not whether we should trust the measurement

* Academic vs. business discourse (and why one is afraid of being wrong)

* Putting tomatoes in fruit salad
