This presentation explores the hidden trade-offs of generative AI adoption. While tools like ChatGPT increase speed, accessibility, and average quality, they may also reshape authority, expertise, and our relationship to creation in subtle ways.
We will examine how AI systems tend to optimize for statistical coherence, often pulling output toward the average, and what this means for professionals, educators, and organizations.
The session introduces the concept of cognitive comparative advantage: why AI should augment human expertise rather than replace it, and how misuse can lead to a gradual flattening of intellectual depth and differentiation.
Participants will leave with practical ideas for allocating human and AI intelligence strategically — preserving judgment, creativity, and authority while leveraging automation where it truly adds value.
