Hello there, luminous learner!

"Every product tries to change human behaviour," says Matt Wallaert, our latest podcast guest, applied behavioural scientist, author of Start at the End, and all-around expert in making change actually happen.

During our delightful conversation, Matt shared why every project should begin with one big question: “What’s the outcome we really want?”

He talks about scaling change, the ethics of behavioural science, and why diverse perspectives are the best way to stay on track.

Listen to it here, or watch it here.

Big love,

"Knowing when to use AI is a form of wisdom" writes the esteemed author of Co-Intelligence, Ethan Mollick.

Helpfully, in a recent blog post, he wrote a list of 15 Times to Use AI, and 5 Not To.

The "do" list includes things like using AI for work where you want a second opinion, or a trial-run response from an imagined persona.

The "don't" list includes areas of work where effort is the point, like giving a presentation on a topic as part of learning that topic for yourself.

(This is probably a good time to mention that all of our newsletters are written by humans, as tempting as ChatGPT's flashing cursor is 😉)
