Welcome back to UXChange, I’m Jeremy — and today we’re talking about something I’ve been wrestling with personally: when should we actually use AI?

We all love what it can do — speed, automation, magic. But at what point does using AI stop helping us think, and start replacing the thinking itself?

In this episode, I share my personal heuristics for using AI at work — not as a researcher, but as a knowledge worker trying to stay effective, curious, and human in an AI-powered world. I unpack questions like:

• When is AI genuinely adding value, and when is it just noise?
• How much control are you willing to give away for efficiency?
• Where’s the line between delegation and disconnection?

I’ll talk about why some tasks must stay human — especially those that shape your understanding, your craft, and your credibility — and how I’ve learned to decide where AI fits in my creative and research process.

🎧 Listen now for a raw, reflective episode about the mindset, trade-offs, and self-trust we all need in this new era of AI-driven productivity.
