How I AI

How a Global Entrepreneur Adapts Mindset and Family for an AI-Driven Future


Listen Later

In this episode of "How I AI," I sit down in Bali with Umer Hadeed - Innovation Architect, Serial Entrepreneur, and co-founder of The Collective AI. But rather than a tech-heavy breakdown, this conversation goes deeper. We explore the mindset shift required to adapt in the age of AI, how history mirrors today’s digital revolution, and what it means to raise families during this unprecedented time of change.

Whether you’re a founder, a freelancer, or a parent navigating what to teach the next generation, Umer offers a grounded, big-picture perspective. We unpack the emotional friction many feel, why tech stacks are constantly evolving, and how automation is redefining the value of human work. If you’ve been craving a thoughtful, human-centered take on this AI wave, this episode is for you.

What We Cover:

  • How Umer entered the AI space after years in engineering, e-comm, blockchain, and creative tech
  • The role of community and connection in accelerating AI adoption
  • Why AI isn’t eliminating jobs - it’s displacing them, and what that means for your next move
  • Raising kids in an AI-first world: mindset, responsibility, and opportunity
  • How to future-proof yourself in a world of constant change
