Changing the Way We Change: AI, Insight and Human Judgment with Adrian Wolfberg, Ph.D.
What does it mean to understand the present clearly when artificial intelligence is transforming how we access information, solve problems and make decisions? In the inaugural episode of Everything Is Energy Conversations, Lisa Marie speaks with Adrian Wolfberg, Ph.D.—researcher, author, organizational scientist, former U.S. naval officer and former civilian intelligence officer—about insight, leadership and human judgment in the age of AI. Together, they explore why more information does not necessarily create better understanding; how knowledge must be framed, integrated and communicated before it can lead to meaningful action; and why recognizing anomalies may help us respond to change before a failure forces us to. Their conversation also considers: • AI as a thinking partner rather than simply another tool • The difference between earned confidence and apparent confidence • How confidently delivered information can be mistaken for truth • Simple, complex and "wicked" problems • The effects of smartphones and AI on attention, reading and critical thinking • Why humans must remain responsible for framing questions and evaluating AI's answers • How reclaiming our relationship with time can strengthen creativity, judgment and self-awareness • What education may need to preserve as children grow up with generative AI The larger question running throughout the episode is one that affects us all: If we want to change the way we change, what distinctly human capacities must we strengthen now?
