This episode takes a different perspective. Host Nyla Reed explores the capabilities that become more important in an AI-enabled workplace. From emotional intelligence and ethical decision-making to trust, context, and sensemaking, she examines why the future of talent management depends as much on human judgment as it does on technological advancement. 

Drawing from a real-world example of AI misuse in a client interaction, Nyla challenges listeners to think beyond automation and consider a more important question: 

As AI gets better, what human capabilities become indispensable?
