In this powerful episode, we dive deep into the human-AI divide, exploring why artificial intelligence still can’t truly understand human behavior, emotion, or context. From behavioral assessments to AI-generated music and therapy bots, our hosts unpack what machines still miss about what it means to be human.

Whether you're in psychology, tech, coaching, or just curious about the future, this conversation will challenge your assumptions and leave you thinking differently about the role of AI in our lives.

Topics covered:

Why AI can't replicate emotional depth

The myth of behavioral "types" and personality boxes

What human nuance AI misses — and always might

Emotional intelligence vs. artificial processing

Why context matters more than categorization

If you're a coach, therapist, leader, or curious thinker, this one's for you.

What if you could map human behaviour in real time, and predict how people will respond, shift, or resist you in a conversation?

In this episode, we dive into the Leary Circumplex, a psychological model that helps decode interpersonal behavior across dominance, submission, warmth, and hostility.

From its roots in academic psychology to real-world application in interviews, leadership, negotiations, and investigations, we explore:

– The origins and evolution of the Circumplex model
– How behavior shifts in live conversation
– Using positioning to build rapport or reduce conflict
– Why every action pulls a reaction and how to read that dynamically

If you're serious about behavioural intelligence, self-awareness, and better conversations this is a foundational listen.

What would Sherlock Holmes think of social media?

In this episode, we explore how the legendary detective’s methods of deep logic and keen observation completely clash with today’s fast-paced, dopamine-fueled internet culture.

Would Holmes see TikTok as a threat to critical thinking?
Is social media eroding your ability to reason and remember?
How does confirmation bias, echo chambers, and Dunning-Kruger play out online?

We dig into everything from the “brain attic” metaphor to the death of boredom and the rise of emotional reasoning. This is part social commentary, part cognitive science — wrapped in a Sherlockian thought experiment.
