About this episode

The episode discusses the responsible use of AI in 2026, highlighting its benefits and potential drawbacks.

AI is everywhere — in products, workflows, marketing, and decision-making. But are we using it where it truly adds value, or simply because we can? In this episode of Kishore’s Podcast , I reflect on how AI is being applied in 2026 — where it clearly works, and where it may be doing more harm than good. I share: Where AI genuinely augments humans and improves outcomes Why I’m skeptical about AI replacing humans in marketing and brand storytelling The hidden trust cost of AI-generated video content How over-automation can hurt credibility, connection, and revenue A more balanced approach to using AI with responsibility and taste This is not an anti-AI conversation. It’s a call for intentional, human-first AI adoption . Because the goal is not maximum automation — the goal is maximum impact with trust . 🎧 Listen in if you’re curious about technology, leadership, and building with purpose in the age of AI.
