The human advantage in an AI economy

Could AI transformation be exhausting humans rather than optimizing their performance? As artificial intelligence transforms how we work, organizations face a new challenge: ensuring people have the brain health and skills (mckinsey.com/mhi/our-insights/the-human-advant…) to cope with the cognitive demands of technology. On this episode of The McKinsey Podcast (mckinsey.com/featured-insights/mckinsey-podcast), McKinsey Partners mckinsey.com/our-people/erica-coeand Kana Enomoto (mckinsey.com/our-people/kana-enomoto), and McKinsey Health Institute (MHI) Senior Fellow Jacqueline Brassey, speak with Global Editorial Director Lucia Rahilly about why brain capital is becoming a key competitive advantage in the age of AI—and what leaders can do to build healthier, more adaptable, and higher-performing organizations.
In the second half of this episode, McKinsey Senior Partner Shubham Singhal joins Lucia to answer a few audience questions from a recent McKinsey Live webinar (mckinsey.com/mgi/our-research/how-ceos-can-nav…) on geopolitics and how it’s reshaping global trade.
The McKinsey Podcast is cohosted by Lucia Rahilly and Roberta Fusaro.
