🧠 Episode Overview:
As someone who works at the intersection of AI, media psychology, and leadership, I’m not just interested in tech—I’m interested in the human behind the tech, and those who think similar.
My guest is Faisal Hoque, a three-time founder, Deloitte Technology Fast 500 winner, and author of the deeply timely and thoughtful book Transcend: Unlocking Humanity in the Age of AI. We explore what it really means—not just to be human, but to stay human—as artificial intelligence reshapes our decisions, our creativity, and our society.
This episode blends deep reflection with practical insight: from AI as mirror and partner, to frameworks for responsible experimentation, to what we must protect—and reclaim—in a world of machine intelligence.
