What if the biggest threat from AI isn't a rogue superintelligence, but the friction and bias in our own thinking?
In this episode, Cristian Worthington and Sandra Giffin challenge the classic "Alignment Problem" and reveal a much more immediate and personal challenge: the misalignment within ourselves.
They argue that our own cognitive biases, economic fallacies, and outdated work processes are the real barriers to achieving our goals.
Through a powerful real-world story they call "The Parable of the Six CTOs" , they illustrate how even brilliant experts can be limited by their own experience, unknowingly aligning a task with their past instead of with the best possible outcome.
This isn't just a diagnosis; it's a roadmap for the future. Discover how AI can act as an unbiased mirror, helping us escape psychological traps like the Sunk Cost Fallacy and adopt a revolutionary workflow for building quality from the ground up.
You'll learn a practical framework called "The Alignment Audit" to identify your own "invisible scripts" and discover why the future of work will promote humans from practitioners to architects of vision and directors of taste.
This is a must-listen for any leader, builder, or creative professional looking to thrive in the new Age of Alignment.
