    The Human Edge // Business Skills

    Episode 24: The human edge Speakers: Lila Vialat, Ian Rodwell and Rahim Hirji What happens when AI assumes aspects of our jobs, while also reshaping how we think about experience, expertise and our sense of self at work? In this latest episode, we are joined by Rahim Hirji, author of Super Skills: The Seven Human Skills for the Age of AI, to explore the changing nature of work, the unbundling of roles and the rise of ‘synthetic seniority’. Along the way, we uncover the human skills that matter even more in an AI-enabled world - including judgment, taste, curiosity and wisdom – while revealing how technology can enhance rather than erode human potential. We also confirm how good old-fashioned techniques like mindmapping still have an important role to play…! View the podcast video recording here.
