Season 7 – Episode 1: Why mediocrity might be the key to success with AI | Morten Münster
Bent Dalager is joined by one of Denmark’s leading behavior specialists, Morten Münster.. He has just released the book The Department of Magical Thinking, in which he maps out the irrational wishful thinking that often shapes difficult tasks and projects - and explains why mediocrity is sometimes actually the goal. Especially when we talk about AI and the changes the technology brings with it.
Together they dive into habits, why we should embrace mediocrity, and which behavioral pitfalls both leaders and employees should be aware of when new AI tools are implemented and used in the organization.
