Rethinking AI Coaching: Smarter Systems, Missing Context, and the Human Edge
About this episode
This episode explores the impact of artificial intelligence on endurance coaching, discussing both its capabilities and limitations.
Hosted by Dr. Namrita Brooke and Tim Cusick, this episode explores how artificial intelligence is changing endurance coaching. We look at what AI and AI coaching software already do well, including analyzing data, identifying patterns, evaluating training, and helping design or adjust plans. We also examine the limitations—especially what happens when information is incomplete, context is missing, or AI fills in the gaps with assumptions. Most importantly, we discuss why the future of coaching is not simply human versus artificial intelligence, but expert human coaching made stronger by better tools. Listen to the episode, then leave us a review below and let us know where you think AI fits into the future of endurance coaching.
