Great article. The more I work with GenAI, the more I find it’s like dealing with humans. Both hallucinate, both need clear instructions, both can be yes men (or women) if you let them, both can be critical if you let them, etc.

Super great point! I try to give lots of extra detail whenever I can. And I always ask for pros and cons, or possible limitations.

That’s a great point, and I never thought about how they both have similar needs when it comes to clarity

I truly connect with Melissa’s framework and her exceptional abilities in guiding the concept of examining what’s broken before exploring the vast possibilities of AI.

I so appreciate this, @Anna Levitt! And you’re absolutely right.. we need to assess what is not working before we add in a new tool:).

Thank you for writing this. It's the reminder I needed that starting with what's human isn't soft leadership.

Great perspective. In the end, humans will always find a way to work with humans, I think. But they'll all just be using AI, and having far bigger impact.

Yes! Many of the biggest organizational challenges beneath the surface are human ones.

Well said, and I agree. Many will try removing the human element altogether but u don’t think it will be sustainable
