AI is a powerful tool, not a low-cost replacement. The companies winning will be the ones balancing human expertise with AI efficiency.

Aaron H Indeed it does not sure what you mean by the “handful of people” : the “Call to Rome : AI ethics” united almost all the faith and Philosopies in the world 🌍 In 2024 on the 80th Anniversary of the Atomic bomb?

Fearghal MacGowan The very same questions I have been asking for an age. Excellent comment and observations we are aligned.

True, true... Whether AI helps or hurts depends far less on the model and far more on who captures the surplus it creates. A tool that doubles output is great news for whoever owns the contract and neutral-to-bad for everyone whose pay was tied to hours. It gets decided in boardrooms long before it shows up in the economy.

I like how you highlight that “who decides what gets built” matters more than just what AI can do. I’m curious how we ensure everyday people actually have a say, not just tech giants or policymakers.

Matthew Kilkenny your dedication to highlighting complex AI issues to busy professionals is commendable. Information overload is real. Without 'sabbath' downtime we lose perspective, connection and direction- our humanity.

Robert Fenlon Thank you for your Kindness greatly appreciated.

One of the most important lines here: ‘making it easy for people to speak up.’ Teams perform better when people feel heard without fear.

Back to being slaves again!

Matthew Kilkenny thanks and I hope you are well! I lived in China for four years, my VPN got a lot of use during that time. I also have some Irish ancestry, though unfortunately I have yet to visit Ireland, it’s on my bucket list. I think the biggest challenge Catholicism has in being taken as universal, is the fact that 70% of the world doesn’t believe in the divinity of Jesus, including within the Abrahamic religions, where Judaism and Islam do not recognize Jesus as a messiah. But certainly the world‘s populations of Hindus and Buddhists, etc, non-Western, and non-theist peoples, these comprise the vast majority of Homo sapiens as a species. Therefore, any attempt to reconcile artificial intelligence with world views and cosmologies, will need to make peace with a species level understanding. That’s why I would submit to you that a universal outlook is actually a species level outlook, rather than the outlook of any one particular new tradition. I say this because the human species is about 300,000 years old, whereas there’s no existing tradition, religious or otherwise that is any older than about 2% of the time the species has existed. That means any claim to universalism by any tradition is quite narrow.

EQ and governance share the same DNA, both demand self-awareness and the discipline to act beyond short-term instinct. Justin Wright

Strong point. The real AI conversation is no longer about capability it’s about governance, incentives, and who captures the value.

Thanks for sharing 👍🏻

This is exactly the leadership question we need to ask more often. AI capability alone does not guarantee better outcomes unless governance, incentives, and value distribution are designed with intention. The real risk is not only what AI can scale, but whether we are scaling systems that serve people broadly and responsibly. Pascal BORNET

The “vending machine” mindset is exactly where expectations break because iteration is still doing most of the heavy lifting

Faster systems need wiser leaders. Not just smarter ones. Because "who decides what gets built" is a values question. And you can't answer a values question with a strategy framework. The leaders who will shape AI well aren't just technically informed. They're deeply self-aware - clear on who they are, what they stand for, and the kind of world they're willing to be responsible for building.

Leonard Rodman, M.Sc. PMP LSSBB CSM CSPO Workato Really well expressed. I like how you’ve shown that coding with Claude Code is about process and craftsmanship, not shortcuts or one‑line prompts.

Back to pavilion...

AI works best when combined with: Human judgement + Domain expertise + Critical thinking

SAURABH SINGH Interesting perspective Crazy how fast companies adopted AI without fully thinking about the cost impact.Feels like we’re still figuring out where AI actually adds value vs where humans are still more efficient.
