About Projjal (JJ) Ghatak:

JJ is pioneering a new approach to leadership in today's hybrid work environment. At OnLoop, he uses AI-driven feedback mechanisms to empower leaders to foster growth, collaboration, and high performance within their teams. His innovative approach shifts feedback from judgment to curiosity, turning it into a tool for constructive development.

In this episode, Dean Newlund and Projjal (JJ) Ghatak discuss:

The role of AI in enhancing leadership and workplace feedback systems
AI-driven productivity and its impact on workforce efficiency
The intersection of artificial intelligence and emotional connection
The future of AI in business and global competitiveness
Ethical and societal implications of AI replacing human interactions

Key Takeaways:

AI-generated feedback has been proven to be more structured, unbiased, and effective than feedback given by 91% of human managers, helping employees better understand their strengths and weaknesses.
Studies show that people are more likely to accept constructive feedback when they don’t know if it was written by AI or a human, but they become more resistant when they are explicitly told it was AI-generated.
AI-powered companionship services, such as AI-generated boyfriends and girlfriends, are growing rapidly, especially among individuals who have lost a loved one or feel emotionally isolated.
Unlike some nations that regulate AI cautiously, Singapore has actively embraced AI innovation, prioritizing technological advancement over concerns about potential misuse in order to stay globally competitive.

"Giving and receiving good feedback is a deeply unnatural act, and I think we've been largely unsuccessful at getting people to do it well at scale.” — Projjal (JJ) Ghatak
