AI is revolutionizing everything—but one thing it won’t fix is our unwillingness to hear the truth.

In this episode, Vanessa shares a powerful reflection sparked by OpenAI rolling back its “too agreeable” model—and how this parallels the fear many organizations have about evaluating their work. Are we more interested in being reassured than being right?

📌 In this episode:

  • Why some execs fear evaluation—and how it’s holding them back

  • How agreeable AI mirrors the L&D world’s dependence on surface metrics

  • Emerging AI tools that can finally make Level 3 measurement doable

  • A new Kirkpatrick offering to help you integrate AI and evaluation responsibly

🎧 Listen to this wake-up call for learning leaders—and what to do next.
