ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
In this episode of Technically Human, I sit down with Leo Hoar, founder of the UXR Institute, to talk about what AI can and cannot do for students, professionals, business owners, and startup founders. Leo brings a unique perspective as a former academic, UX researcher, entrepreneur, and self-described “recovering academic” who has spent his career thinking deeply about how people learn, make decisions, and build better experiences.
Together, we explore why AI can accelerate your work, but cannot replace good thinking. Leo shares why critical thinking, communication, emotional intelligence, and learning how to learn may be more valuable than ever in an AI-driven world.
We also discuss the impact of AI on entry-level roles, education, career transitions, startups, solopreneurship, and the growing importance of human judgment.If you have ever wondered whether AI is replacing people, how to use AI without outsourcing your own thinking, or whether now is the right time to start building your own business, this conversation offers practical insight, encouragement, and a thoughtful reminder that technology is most powerful when it supports, not replaces, human intelligence.
