So you're seeing articles and headlines all the time about what is good storytelling?

What is the room for storytelling in the world of artificial intelligence and so forth?

There are many elements, I think, to telling a good story.

For me personally, I think the single most important thing is, does it create a connection?

And ultimately, a connection is usually about something personal.

You can be a great speaker.

When I think about TED Talks,

What are the ones that really resonate?

It's when somebody gets up and they are vulnerable and they share something about themselves and their background and who they are.

And all of a sudden that connection is made, human to human.

And that is the essence of a great story.

All the other things are really important.

And I see it in my own personal life, right?

Anytime I'm talking to someone, whether it's one-on-one or I'm giving a talk or I'm somewhere else, when I share something about my background, how something in my life taught me a lesson that brought me to where I am, I instantly notice a change.

And so I think that connection and that personal nature is absolutely core.

Yeah, so we spent a lot of time talking about AI.

I believe very strongly in moderation in all things.

And that carries over for me into the workplace.

And AI is a really good example of this.

So we're really approaching it in a much more moderated and methodical fashion.
