Title: AI vs. Human: Who Should Assess the Threat?
🎧 Summary:
In this fast-paced 15-minute episode, host Jim Bennett dives into one of the most urgent questions in workplace and campus safety today: Can artificial intelligence replace human expertise in behavioral threat assessment?
Using a gripping, real-world scenario, Jim walks listeners through a mock threat case involving a university student exhibiting multiple warning signs—then challenges listeners to pause, assess risk factors, and develop their own management plans.
But here’s the twist: AI is brought in to do the same. You’ll hear how a human response compares to a large language model’s output, and what that means for the future of threat prevention.
Whether you’re a threat assessment professional, school administrator, HR director, or just interested in how emerging tech meets human intuition—this one’s for you.

A detailed mock case study involving a high-risk student
Key risk factors that indicate a pathway to violence
Jim’s rapid human threat assessment vs. AI-generated response
Where AI falls short—and where it impresses
Critical components of a violence prevention management plan
