Rewiring Your Mind for AI with Dr David Wood
This week on the podcast I had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr David Wood, Glenn D. Ardis Professor of Accounting at Brigham Young University, prolific author of over 200 publications, and the mind behind the new book Rewiring Your Mind for AI. David is not only an academic voice in accounting, but a leading thinker on how artificial intelligence is reshaping the way we learn, work, and create.
He discusses the concept of neuroplasticity, the growth of AI capabilities, and the importance of a transformational mindset in leveraging AI. The conversation highlights the rapid evolution of AI and its dual potential to enhance or disrupt various aspects of life and work.
