AI Can’t Replace This One Skill
Manage episode 497194826 series 2812591
AI is reshaping how we live, learn, and work. But no matter how powerful the technology becomes, there’s one skill it will never replicate: being human.
In this special episode of The Optimistic Outlook, Siemens USA CEO Barbara Humpton shares her 2025 commencement address to graduates of Western Governors University. Her message is both simple and powerful: Empathy. Curiosity. Resilience. The joy you bring to your work. These aren’t soft skills — they’re human skills. And in a world increasingly driven by AI, they’re more essential than ever.
Tune in to hear Barbara’s reflections on the future of work, her personal journey in tech and leadership, and why the most optimistic outlook begins with embracing what makes us uniquely human.
