Card I gave away most at facilitation conference

Make ripples - start dissent by having one conversation and helping people feel they matter doing things that matter

Recognise that some people need to be loud and some to be quiet for change. That some things need to be seen and some to be broken.

A new post acuity.design/ai-and-facil... based upon one session at #Facilitate2026 yesterday about #AI and the future of #facilitation. What I’m trying to present is a more positive view on the value of human facilitation and where there are gaps that AI cannot and should not be deployed.

Session on #AI at #Facilitate2026 - asked the ChatGPT participant about what humans can do better Tools and process are all more efficiently managed by AI. Yet it cannot do four big things. #facilitation

FACILITATORS AS GUARDIANS OF REAL HUMAN DIALOGUE
Four areas that Al cannot or should not be trying to facilitate
• Conflict
• Emotion
• Doubt
• Silence
Let Al facilitate process and let humans be more truthfully connected
