Do You Sound Like a Human?

AI tools are reshaping how people work and communicate, often producing polished but impersonal outputs that obscure individual voice and competence. The instinct to regulate AI through policies and restrictions mirrors a predictable human tendency to control rather than lead. True leadership in this moment demands something harder: authenticity about our own uncertainties, radical adaptation of outdated systems and hiring practices, and accountability cultures built on integrity rather than surveillance. The question is not whether AI has changed how we work. It is clear we work differently. The question is whether leaders will change how they lead.
