Description

A Fast Company Press Book

Be Unreachable to AI Machines

We are living in a time where we must decide which side to stand on: AI-obsessed or AI-afraid. We surrender our critical thinking to the machine, or reject all things AI. But are these really the only two choices? There is a better way. Utilizing decades of CXO experiences and a storied career at the intersection of innovation and technology, Mohan Nair delivers a bold blueprint for thriving in the age of Gen AI without sacrificing the very traits that make us human.

Research shows that by allowing Gen AI to think for us, we risk cognitive atrophy. Nair's surprisingly simple antidote? Exercise your aha moments and build scaffolding for your transformational ideas. Through research, field insight, and real-world case studies, Nair theorizes how to ignite your inner innovator by tapping into aha moments where original insight lives. You will command AI tools and create what machines cannot: the yet-to-be-created.

Subdue AI-obsession and AI-fear. Become insight-powered and AI-enabled. Be UNREACHABLE.

Critical Reviews

Praise for Unreachable

"Mohan challenges us to rise above AI fear and obsession to become AI-enabled innovators who shape the future on our terms." -Tony Robbins, #1 New York Times best-selling author, peak performance strategist, entrepreneur, philanthropist

"In an era dominated by AI, Mohan Nair reminds us of the irreplaceable power of human insight and creativity. This book is a masterful guide to reclaiming our innovative selves while embracing the transformative potential of AI." -Lee Shapiro, managing partner, 7wire Ventures

"Thoughtfully provocative, Unreachable offers a counterbalance to the AI hysteria flooding the business world. It's not about rejecting the future as much as it's about surviving it intact." -Caryn Lusinchi, AI governance and risk management expert, Global Governance Institute

"In Unreachable, there is a powerful correlate between man and machine that Mohan illuminates that the media is not adequately addressing. We are all fascinated by the capabilities of Gen AI, arguably dazzled by them, but have not focused the profoundly misunderstood potential implications." -Michael A. Greeley, general partner, Flare Capital Partners

"Mohan's Unreachable challenges each of us to rethink our role as consumers of AI. We have a choice: either remain passive and fall behind in a world that is becoming ever more reliant on AI or take an active role in understanding how AI may complement our work and our lives. Unreachable makes a compelling case for the latter and provides valuable guidance for how to thrive in the era of AI." -David C. Rhew, MD, global chief medical officer and VP of healthcare, Microsoft

"Unreachable by Mohan Nair, a modern day DaVinci (he is an artist and scientist), is about #AI and #insight and is a must-read for anyone wondering about the future of #innovation in the age of AI!" -Naomi Fried, PhD, founder and CEO, PharmStars; general partner, PharmStars Ventures
