But if you have a conversation with AI and you use it as a tool to say, this is where I'm going,

How do we get there?

How can you help me?

And ask me as many questions as you need to understand the scope of the project.

A little bit like you would if you were using an external vendor, like you're building a house and you're talking to an architect.

An architect is an expert at architecture, building homes, understanding how all the systems work together.

But you don't just tell an architect, I want to build a house.

And when they come back at you and it's a crappy design, you say, you're a bad architect.

You have to have a conversation.

You have to scope it out.

You have to talk about your feelings.

What feels good?

How do you want the room to flow?

And what I love about the fighter pilot way of thinking and working is

is everything we do, and you have to understand that a fighter pilot, we're basically a reprogrammed human being because everything that we're programmed to do as a human to survive is the opposite of the skill sets and the mental models you need to be a fighter pilot.

So what we understand is everything in the world of a fighter pilot, you start with a target and work backwards, and then you iterate your actions to get there, whereas a human being does the opposite.

A human being says, here's who I am and what I do, and this is where I want to go, which means that you're really not going to transform yourself or evolve yourself into the person you need to be.

And at risk right now,

is anyone in the intellectual space, anyone who is in the leadership space.

Because if you keep approaching leadership as you do today, which is managing what exists, three years from now, you're not going to have a job because AI needs direction.
