AI-Powered Leadership: Why Supercomputers Need Supercommunicators | Oliver Aust | TEDxPFH Goettingen
Don't compete with the machine, use the machine to compete. Smart leaders leverage AI to enhance their decision-making while focusing on what AI can't do – building trust, creating vision, and connecting with their teams. Why? Because AI projects fail when employees fear replacement and don't trust leadership's intentions.In the age of AI, intelligence becomes cheap and abundant, but human wisdom remains rare. The future belongs to "super communicators" who can bridge the gap between people and technology, turning AI from threat to competitive advantage. Oliver Aust is a bestselling author and communication expert whose book "Message Machine" has helped leaders master the art of impactful messaging. As a sought-after speaker and advisor, he works with hundreds of CEOs and government leaders to enhance their communication strategies in an increasingly complex business landscape. Aust specializes in helping organizations navigate digital transformation challenges, particularly focusing on how leaders can maintain human connection and trust while adopting new technologies like AI.

- 18:54Reimagining Economies through AI-Powered Innovation | Gary Shiffman | TEDxGreenville SalonIn his TEDxGreenville talk, Gary Shiffman explores the disconnect between Greenville’s impressive GDP growth and its lagging real wages, highlighting South Carolina’s rank near the bottom nationally. Analyzing over a century of economic plans, he reveals the city’s consistent prioritization of growth over wages. Shiffman warns that Greenville’s labor-driven economic path is outdated in an era of AI, where capital increasingly replaces labor. He urges local leaders, educators, and entrepreneurs to act now—by building innovation labs, launching startups, and recruiting AI firms. Greenville, he argues, is ideally positioned to lead the next generation of advanced manufacturing by focusing on building happy employees. I believe that small groups of creative and dedicated people change the world. I seek to work with and to empower others working to help make our communities freer and safer in a complex, coercive, and violent world. I have served in war and traveled the world, studied Economics human behavior, and worked at the pinnacles of power in government and in industry.I co-founded two AI companies when I saw an opportunity join behavioral science with AI innovations coming from computer science to empower those on the front lines of combatting coercion, fraud, and violence in the military, law enforcement, and in financial institutions.I love to teach, write, and engage with curious people.
