Everyone's debating whether AI will hurt young workers or experienced ones, but what if the "AI generational gap" is a complete distraction? The real problem isn't your people; it's that you've accidentally created terrible incentives around AI adoption. Your experienced employees see a threat, while your junior staff lack strategic context. Fix the incentive problem, and the adoption problem solves itself.

Many organizations invest in powerful AI tools only to find their teams frustrated. The common assumption is that the AI isn't smart enough, but the real issue is often a lack of context.

Mastering the technology is straightforward; the more valuable work is in changing our behavior to provide AI with the information it needs to be a truly effective partner.

To me, there wasn't the whole WHOA LOOK WHAT IT CAN DO!! Followed by people spitting out their cereal. This was more of a recognition that the WOW moments aren't moving the needle for you, for me, for enterprise.

Not everyone’s going to like this newsletter. That’s okay. Ready? We need to talk about AI as a tool for emotional processing. Which, let’s be real, is another way of asking if AI can be your friend. First, let’s acknowledge what we’re dealing with. Our society faces a mental health crisis unlike anything we’ve seen before. Loneliness has reached epidemic levels. Access to mental health resources remains limited. And anxiety and depression rates continue to climb.

Most AI tools out there are like those late-night infomercial gadgets collecting dust in your attic—promising miracles, but just sitting there unused. Claude, however, is different.
