2035 and Beyond: What Makes Us Human in a Machine World

This week on DisrupTV, we interviewed: - Lee Rainie, Director, Imagining the Digital Future Center at Elon University - Margaret Moore and Jeffrey Hull, Co-authors of The Science of Leadership: Nine Ways to Expand Your Impact Lee Rainie, Margaret Moore, and Jeffrey Hull explored how AI is reshaping leadership and essential human traits. Rainie cited research on 12 core traits, raising flags about AI's potential to erode social-emotional intelligence and critical thinking. Moore and Hull underscored the growing need for authenticity, humility, and collaborative leadership in this new era. They introduced their book, The Science of Leadership, which identifies nine key leadership capacities and emphasizes continuous learning and adaptability. The discussion also touched on how AI can support shared and transformational leadership, so long as human values and decision-making autonomy remain central.
