  • AI tools: From growth to balance
    Jun 22 2025

    How is AI going to change the way we work, and is it really going to be a total disaster as some are forecasting? Or maybe there is a way that we can all gain something from it? Before we get into panic mode, let us learn about it.

    In this episode we focus on the ever changing artificial intelligence input into our lives and especially in the workplace. Zac Engler, CEO at Bodhi AI, writes about machine learning, AI, and how artificial intelligence is now becoming more than a tool. Machines are becoming partners, competitors, and mirrors, reflecting both the promise and peril of our progress. What does this mean for us? Are we all going to be unemployed? Or maybe this is the chance to re-write our life? The more we learn about this not so now technology, the better equipped we are going to be.

    There is no need to be super anxious and read doom and gloom articles. Let’s instead see what we can gain from this revolution, just like we did when we moved from typewriters to personal computers!

    If you want to learn more, pre-order the book that Zac has written to go deep inside the subject.

  • AI in the classroom: how will Artificial Intelligence impact our schooling system?
    Jun 15 2025

    As AI enters the classrooms, are we all going to become lazy and maybe lacking critical thinking?

    Dean Batson, a lecturer at Arizona State University, will address the issue. Dean teaches communication, persuasion, and consumer behavior and works with students of all ages, mostly Gen Z.

    In this interview, Dean will highlight what we’re getting wrong about AI in education and specifically:

    1. Why adaptability is the new communication superpower

    2) How to teach students to spot bias, think deeper, and still own their ideas

    3) What happens when people treat AI like a shortcut instead of a skill

    He concludes that students today aren’t “cheating” with AI, they’re trying to survive a system that hasn’t caught up.

    Want to know more? Tune in to listen to Dean Batson and for further questions, find him here:

    Topics covered: AI, artificial intelligence, critical thinking, communication skills, adaptability, super power, spot bias, think deep, shortcuts, cheating, educational methodology, university, high school learning, good student
