Dr. Deepika Chopra, known as "The Optimism Doctor," argues that resistance to AI adoption stems from psychological uncertainty rather than technological hurdles. She posits that the core human concern is not job displacement but a fundamental question of relevance: "Will I still matter?" Chopra suggests leaders should focus on creating clarity and building adaptability, rather than solely relying on traditional change management, to help individuals navigate the profound human experience of change.
