EP#28 Are We Agile Enough For AI and Humanity? With guest Toby Harris.

Learning From The Edges

Be bold! In this week's conversation with guest Toby Harris from Filtered, we are encouraged to consider the big picture and take a leap, be that in experimenting with AI or considering people and culture. Skills are only possibilities, suggests Toby. Intriguing.
As someone who has been working with artificial intelligence since before it was the buzzword of today, Toby brings a wealth of knowledge and experience, not just about the potential of AI in our industry, but also helps to identify what we need to get right before we attempt to replace our current systems to enhance productivity.
Toby encourages us to prioritise people, processes and systems, inspired by Bruce Schneier https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2013/01/people_process.html
Toby also mentioned John Seddon's Failure Demand and Value Demand, from Seddon's 1992 book I Want You To Cheat. amazon.co.uk/Want-You-Cheat-Unreasonable-Organisations/dp/095197310X
