About this episode

Rahim Hirji discusses the essential human skills that AI cannot replicate and how to leverage them in the age of AI.

Rahim Hirji says the skills AI can’t replicate are now your real edge — and most of us are drifting into an AI-shaped life without noticing. In this episode of Inside Learning, the Super Skills author explains the difference between algorithmic drift and intentional design, why losing ”busy work” is good news, and the ”human at the start” mindset that turns AI into a centaur-style partner instead of a replacement. He walks through all seven super skills: curiosity, change readiness, big picture thinking, principled innovation, empathy, global adaptability and the augmented mindset. Hosted by Aidan McCullen — 2025 Thinkers50 Innovation Award recipient and author of Undisruptable — Inside Learning explores learning science and the future of work.
