Prompted: AI, People and the Creative Spark

Why Default AI Will Fail, and What Will Win Instead with Box CEO Aaron Levie


Listen Later

Box Cofounder and CEO Aaron Levie joins Cameron Adams to explore how AI is transforming creativity, scale, and ambition inside organizations. Aaron shares how teams can turn data into a superpower, reinvent their ways of working, and unlock new opportunities to multiply their impact, all while keeping human creativity and judgment at the center. He also discusses how startups can now compete at scale from day one and how abundance thinking should shape what comes next.

Key Quotes

“If you're in any creative role, the impact and leverage you have is truly 10 to a hundred times more than it was five or 10 years ago.”

“A three or five person company now has the impact of a 50 person company.”

“We should just start to think about this more as a technology for delivering abundance.”
