The age of intelligent machines is here, but in a world of avatars, automation, and algorithms, what does it mean to really connect? In this episode of Human and the Machine, I sit down with Ash Phillips, founder of Rebellious co, startup mentor to over 1,000 founders, and a true champion of the unreasonably ambitious. From building one of the UK’s most human-centered startup communities to mentoring founders in a rapidly changing world, Ash shares why emotional intelligence might just become our greatest competitive edge. We talk about: - The future of ambition in an AI-driven world - What “people-first” really means when automation scales - How to build authentic, human-centered communities - Why EQ might matter more than IQ - And how the legacy we leave will be defined by how we made others feel .This one’s for the rebels, the builders, and anyone trying to stay human while everything else speeds up. 🔗 Links: Website: https://www.rebelliousco.org/about/ LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashphillips/ Host: @cienandai Newsletter: humanandthemachine.substack.com Listen on Spotify
