Listen "E10 Mahtab Ameri"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Tech-Centric Planet, hosts Mary Beth Huskey and Martin Parr speak with neuroscientist and innovator Mahtab Ameri about her groundbreaking framework, The Neuroscience of AI. Mahtab explains how fear—not technology—is the biggest barrier to AI adoption, and how our brain’s natural alarm systems shape resistance, uncertainty, and curiosity. She introduces her four-stage model for guiding people from fear to readiness by understanding neurobiology, reframing emotional responses, and building “self-leadership” for change. The conversation explores why AI triggers identity-level fears, how small amounts of uncertainty can boost learning, and why empathy and imagination remain uniquely human advantages. Inspiring and deeply human, this episode reimagines AI adoption not as a technical journey, but as a neurological and emotional one.
