Together, they explore the profound role human judgment plays in a world increasingly influenced by artificial intelligence. Andreas shares why leadership, team-building, and social interaction cannot be replicated by AI — and why the human touch is essential to public transport, especially post-pandemic. He reflects on the hybrid nature of mobility as both a political and market-driven service and offers insights into how cities can remain socially alive in a digital-first era. Listeners will come away with thoughtful perspectives on everything from algorithmic bias to storytelling in public sector communication — plus practical examples from Sweden, Estonia, and beyond. This episode is a call to design systems that keep people at the centre, supported — not replaced — by technology.
