AI isn't just changing the way we work. It's changing what humans are capable of doing.
In this episode of The Visibility Podcast, Lauren Cobello sits down with Ben Szuhaj, AI strategist at Kung Fu AI and co-author of Wayfinding, to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming healthcare, business, human behavior, and the future of work.
Ben shares how his team helped develop an AI model capable of predicting a woman's risk of developing breast cancer up to five years into the future, something that goes beyond traditional medical image analysis. But with these breakthroughs come new concerns. Can doctors become too dependent on AI? Are we losing the skills that once made us successful?
He also discusses why so many AI projects fail, how his company achieves a reported 96% project completion rate, and why businesses often make the mistake of investing in AI technology before identifying the problems they actually need to solve.
From AI-powered cancer risk prediction and medical breakthroughs to job displacement, business automation, leadership, and the future of human intelligence, this conversation explores how AI could reshape our world and what it takes to use it responsibly.
