This episode is the replay of my biggest talk to 10,000+ AI founders and engineers at /function1 Dubai.
I spoke about Emotional Intelligence (EI) at an AI conference, and they listened.
I broke EI down in a way technical audiences understand:
patterns → systems → data → small improvements.
Because no matter how advanced AI becomes, the most complex system I’ll ever work with is a human.
In this conversation, I share how EI shapes leadership, communication, and opportunities — and I also learned so much from my fellow panelists.
- Mohammed Benzakour of LinkedIn: 70% of our job skills will change by 2030.
- AI replaces tasks. Humans win through adaptability + communication.
- Prof. Abhilasha Singh Dean of American University in the Emirates: “The illiterate of the 21st century are those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.”
- Hemant Pandey CEO of Hustling Engineer and ex-Meta/Tesla/Salesforce): Your real edge? Skill Velocity: how fast you can learn the next thing.
- Ahmed Metwoali (Sphinque): Engineering is a team sport. Communicate → ship fast → become your team’s AI go-to.
- Adil-Ul Islam of Microsoft reminded us AI should augment, but not replace human judgment.
- Me (EI): If you want funding, collaboration, or opportunity, learn to read people as well as you read data.
In a world moving at the speed of algorithms, staying human is your unfair advantage.
