ethical concerns that come with it. Now, before you run off thinking

that I'm completely against it, hear me out. I truly believe that this

technology has the potential to do so much good, but we need to approach

it with wisdom and discernment.

You see, the pace of change is moving so quickly that it's easy for

people to blindly cling to AI without thinking through the potential

consequences. On the flip side, others may avoid it altogether, which

isn't necessarily the best approach either. We need to find a balance.

I'll discuss tangible ways to mitigate the risks of advanced AI while

still leveraging its potential, like building jobs for the future, not

just for today, and prioritizing digital acumen. As a learning leader,

it's crucial to prepare the workforce and prioritize critical thinking

skills. And for parents out there, don't wait for your kids to get into a

mess - have conversations with them now about the risks and benefits of

advanced AI.

So, while there are certainly risks and ethical concerns to consider

with advanced AI, I'm cautiously optimistic about its potential. Let's

work together to use this technology for good while being mindful of the

potential consequences. I hope this episode challenges your thinking

and encourages you to approach advanced AI with a human-centered

perspective.
