The Future of AI is Relational
Most AI use is now personal, not professional – yet nobody talks about it. I call this the Zone of Shame, and it costs organisations dearly. Recognising these relationships, honestly, and without shame or fear, is what unlocks the technology’s real value. Awareness alone won’t raise your productivity, but no productivity gain lasts without it.
In my keynotes and interactive workshops I name what is happening between people and AI, give it language, and change what your organisation can see.
