AI is getting smarter. Are we? Why your brain is your most critical Dev Tool in the AI age
Drawing on cognitive science and recent research on AI-assisted work, Elisa explores how chronic stress, constant context-switching, and passive AI reliance impact our most valuable assets: Working memory, attention, and deep judgment.
Instead of treating the brain as an afterthought, this session reframes it as critical infrastructure that we must monitor, maintain, and deliberately protect.
You’ll leave with a practical framework to use AI as a cognitive amplifier rather than a mental crutch, ensuring your human skills remain irreplaceable.
