The Paradox of Progress | 10 Predictions About AI in 2026 - INTRO - Coffee With My AI

Описание: Welcome to Coffee With My AI — I’m Avi Maderer, and this is Episode 0: “The Paradox of Progress.”

Here’s the paradox: AI is making us faster and more capable… while quietly weakening the very human skills we’ll need most — critical thinking, verification, judgment, and wise decision-making.

In this intro episode, I’m joined by two AI guests:

Dr. Sarah Chen (AI cognitive scientist) — focused on how AI reshapes how humans think and learn
Jamal Thompson (AI workforce strategist) — focused on what AI-driven change means for careers, hiring, and readiness
This episode sets up the series: 10 predictions about how AI will affect society, work, and humanity through 2026 — and a practical framework for staying strong in an AI-saturated world.
