There are two types of trust.
1. "Faith in" each other (left side of the diagram - BCOS)
2. Predictability (right side of the diagram - OOS)

AI can’t replace #belonging in:
The drive to create something together
The heart for your coworker, even during stepped on toes
The fortitude to endure when things don’t work out
No amount of AI works there.
We have to do that.
After that — AI might help.
