When AI is tap, tapping at your door

•  AI shows the need for leadership •  “Some people are truly afraid of it” (Total Recorded Time is 18:00)    Edgar Allan Poe missed out on artificial intelligence, dying in 1849.  Had he written his poem “The Raven” nowadays, it might have gone like this: “While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “’Tis some AI,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door. Only this and nothing more.”  But for many business leaders today, AI is no specter, but rather just something to deal with, says  Robert Hunt, who leads CEO peer groups and provides executive coaching.  As to that pecking away by AI, Mr. Hunt has some immediate advice.  “I think it's … a novelty and it's exciting -- and fearful to a lot of people,” he says.  “Our job as leaders is like any transition, any new thing, to cast a vision of how it fits into our vision because some people are truly afraid of it.”  Robert Hunt talks about AI and other leadership issues in this episode of Bizgnus Interviews.  Mr. Hunt is a partner with Renaissance Executive Forums Dallas and leads CEO peer groups, provides executive coaching, and leadership development.  His new book, co-authored with Salem Thyne, is “Nobody Cares (until you do),” Advantage Media Group (September 2022).  For more information:  http://www.refdallas.com/
