The Real Fear Isn’t AI
When I work with teams – city departments, nonprofits, small businesses, and schools – I hear the same two statements over and over again.
“We’re not ready for AI.” and “I just don’t trust it.”
People usually think these are separate issues: one about skills, and one about reliability. But after years of teaching adults and guiding organizations through change, I’ve learned something different.
People don’t feel ready because they don’t trust AI. And they don’t trust AI because they don’t feel ready.
