AI processes the data. Material Intelligence is what tells you the data is wrong — field-tested, physical-world knowledge no algorithm can replicate. Human judgment decides what to do about it. The human is not the input. The human is the multiplier.
(AI + MI) × HI™ is an original framework developed by Jigar B. Desai.

Three ideas and one unfinished thought on AI, leadership, and differentiation. Delivered when they are ready. No spam.
