Ep. 029: The Black Box Nobody's Talking About: AI, Human Intuition & the Future of Work (Part 2)

In Part 2 of our conversation with Don Morrow, founder of HighlandTech, we go deep on the questions most people are afraid to ask about artificial intelligence and come back with practical answers. We cover why human creativity and intuition still can't be replicated (even as AI closes the gap fast), what it means to "return to humanity" through technology, and how AI should free you to look up from your keyboard, not chain you to it. Don also breaks down: - How to actually get better at prompting AI tools like ChatGPT and Copilot - Why jumping on every new AI trend might mean you're already behind - Anthropic's unreleased model "Mythos" and why it's not available to the public - Highland Tech's new product Electra: an AI operating system built for physical security teams - How their voice AI agent is resolving 8 out of 10 customer calls without human intervention Whether you're a business owner trying to figure out your AI strategy or just someone who wants to use these tools smarter, this one's for you. 🔗 Learn more about HighlandTech: highlandtech.ai 🔗 Logic Speak: logicspeak.com
