In this month’s Radar conversation, Peter Hinssen, Pascal Coppens and Steven Van Belleghem look beyond the headlines of artificial intelligence to the deeper shifts shaping leadership.

They share how a simple keynote sparked doubts about whether real videos were AI generated and what that says about leading in a disclaimer society where trust must be earned, not assumed. They explore Alex Karp’s claim that innovation has barely advanced since the 1970s apart from AI, and challenge leaders to direct this one true breakthrough toward problems that matter.

The trio also discuss why people with the least knowledge of AI adopt it fastest, the bold scale of China’s national AI+ plan, and how customer expectations of “smart” experiences are outpacing what many companies deliver.
