A chapter of my book is discussed by two AI personas. Find below the summary of the text; and next, my comments about the AI's work. Enjoy !

The text discussed, "Navigating the organization”, asserts that middle managers are now responsible for managing their own career development since dedicated human resources support is less common. It emphasizes that cultivating professional networks and understanding organizational dynamics is crucial for long-term stability and career progression; it addresses the reluctance some feel toward "flexing influence," clarifying that transparent, win-win intentions differentiate influence from manipulation. The source then introduces practical tools for mapping one's professional ecosystem, specifically the utility/impact matrix for classifying relationships based on their potential influence and usefulness. Finally, the text explores the "weak ties" concept, explaining how less-familiar contacts can provide novel perspectives, information, and access to new opportunities beyond one's immediate professional circle.

The excerpt discussed by the AI begins on page 109; the AI does not respect chapter and section titles, which surprised me a little. Although this is creative in a good way, I don't understand why titles need to be recreated rather than quoted when discussing an excerpt. This is unethical behavior towards humans and intellectual property. That said, the discussion is enjoyable; I asked the AI to “speak slowly enough for an international audience” to differentiate it from the first two episodes. You can listen to the result; I see little to no difference, the voices sometimes seem rushed. The structure and flow of the dialogue are the same in English and French (my other podcast), which is interesting in a way. We humans have mental patterns influenced by our language and highlight context in different ways, even following different modes of demonstration, which does not seem to be the case with AI.
