Two years ago I sat down with emotional intelligence coach Jamelle Lindo. Back then, AI conversations were all benchmarks, parameter counts, and who had the biggest model. Emotion was the soft stuff. The nice-to-have. The thing you get to after the real work is done.

Look around now.

The machines got very good at the cognitive part, faster than almost anyone predicted. What they have not touched is the person who can read a room, sit with someone else’s fear, and make the call when the data runs out.

Jamelle’s core claim: emotions are not noise to be managed. They are data about your values, your needs, your state. Most of us were never taught to read them. He wasn’t either. He started from social anxiety and insecurity and ended up coaching executives out of the same trap, which is why his take on #Leadership lands differently than the usual keynote fare.

Then we hit the question I keep circling back to. If an #AI can simulate empathy convincingly, and it already does, what exactly is left that is ours? Is #EmotionalIntelligence our last real edge, or just the next thing to get automated?

Jamelle’s answer isn’t what I expected.
