Episode 70: How Leaders Could Use AI To Make Better Decisions

In this episode of The Thinking Leader, Bryce Hoffman and Marcus Dimbleby talk about the ways in which AI - or AGI - could be used to help leaders make better decisions.

They discuss how AI can enhance your existing decision making processes, with particular reference to the Military Decision Making Practice (MDMP) and Red Team Thinking. They point out the value of using AI to increase diversity of thought, particularly in its capability to play Devil’s Advocate, due to AI’s freedom from political biases.

It is important to understand the limits of AI if you plan to use it in your decision making process. AI is still a relatively new tool which is limited by its dataset and lacks an understanding of human elements. Bryce and Marcus provide insight into where AI is most useful in business decisions, but also where caution is required when implementing such tools.

In this episode:

• How AI can enhance your existing decision making process
• What the limitations of AI are and why a human element is still required
• How AI avoids decision making biases and why this is important
• How to recognize the limitations and opportunities of AI tools
• Bryce and Marcus try to use ChatGPT to play Devil’s Advocate… against itself!
