Choose Your Chase: Staying Human in the AI Race | Fareeha Amber Ansari | TEDxManitou Springs Salon

AI can move faster than you. But it can't choose better than you - not yet. What are you actually chasing, and is it worth it? In this talk, Fareeha Amber Ansari explores what happens as AI takes on more of what we do. The qualities that make us distinctly human - judgment, trust, accountability, human connection - do not become less valuable. They become our edge. Fareeha Amber Ansari is a two-time entrepreneur, data scientist, and AI educator. She has over 15 years working alongside leaders shaping how modern data and AI systems actually function in the messy reality of organizations. Amber has traveled to 29 countries, where she’s come to appreciate the vastness of human cultures and belief systems and how limited any single perspective will always be. Through her LinkedIn writing and as host of the podcast The Intelligent Human Enterprise, Amber is recognized as a trusted voice, bringing lived, often contrarian perspectives on how systems and human behavior influence one another. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
