    Oh my word, try as I may, I could not plod through Edith Zimmerman saying, like”, for the nth time…the interviewer threw in his share, too. Hopefully that habit is fixable. Excruciating.

  • This episode made no sense

    The episode was positioned as how to not let work dominate your life and it was never that. It instructed people on how to form a union, became chaotic around climate change and then started talking about grief. It made zero sense

How to get the most out of AI with Nick Lichtenberg
Q: What is your outlook on the long-term impact of AI on journalism and jobs?
AI will not displace journalists wholesale but will rewire workflows; progress will be slow like electricity, with journalists leveraging AI to do more meaningful work while maintaining rigorous fact-checking and editorial judgment.
How to get the most out of AI with Nick Lichtenberg
Q: How do you manage guardrails and the right prompts to avoid fabrications or hallucinations?
By crafting rules for output, requiring verifiable citations for every fact, testing prompts, and continually feeding back both positive and corrective signals to the AI to align it with trustworthy sources and the journalist's goals.
Friction 101: How to make the right things easier and wrong things harder (w/ Bob Sutton and Huggy Rao) (re-release)
Q: What is good friction and why is it valuable?
Good friction is deliberate, slows down the process to protect quality, foster creativity, and ensure decisions are thoughtful rather than rushed.
Friction 101: How to make the right things easier and wrong things harder (w/ Bob Sutton and Huggy Rao) (re-release)
Q: How do you frame the challenge so people can act on it?
Leaders should see themselves as editors-in-chief of their teams' time, protecting meaningful work and trimming away the nonessential to maximize impact.
Friction 101: How to make the right things easier and wrong things harder (w/ Bob Sutton and Huggy Rao) (re-release)
Q: Bob, what's the most damaging type of friction?
The most damaging friction kills people's will, draining energy and making it hard to sustain momentum, which in turn undermines performance and morale.
