🎧 Continuing our conversation: recent explorations
The following audio reflections capture some of the thinking behind my presentations and workshops. If something we discussed or you heard sparked your curiosity, these might offer additional angles to explore.
🎙️ AI in Dutch healthcare (zorg) – keynote reflections (~12 min)
🎧 Listen to the audio overview:
This is a ~12-minute audio walk-through of some core ideas I shared in a keynote about AI's evolving place in our Dutch healthcare system, or "Zorg" as we know it. It’s a space where technology as a means, never an end, feels incredibly critical, and where meaningful collaboration is paramount.
💡 Key Insight
In complex healthcare situations, AI can act as a flashlight, illuminating new perspectives and augmenting clinical intuition, while keeping the human professional in control.
👥 Perhaps this resonates if you are:
- Someone working within "Zorg," trying to make sense of AI's role
- A policymaker grappling with these changes
- Anyone curious about thoughtfully weaving AI into such a human-centered field
- Someone who believes we are social animals who work better together, even when technology is involved
🎯 Some of the questions and ideas we explore here:
- Why I started thinking about AI as "guiding" (een gids) rather than just a "thing" – and what that shift in perspective might open up
- How AI can be like a "magnifying glass" for what makes us human - our curiosity, creativity, and clinical intuition
- Tangible examples in "Zorg" from understanding diseases to spotting strokes faster
- Addressing real anxieties while emphasizing the fundamental importance of human oversight and connection

🎙️ Finding our way with AI: workshop insights
🎧 Listen to the audio overview:
Here's about ~14 minutes of reflections drawn from a workshop where we really dug into what it means to collaborate with AI, not just use it. It's about moving towards a more dynamic, give-and-take relationship, almost like designing a process where collective wisdom can emerge between human and machine.
💡 Key Insight
What if we thought of AI less as a perfect, all-knowing oracle and more like a sparring partner? This idea of building a genuine back-and-forth for richer thinking, for making our own understanding more visible, is something we unpack a bit here. It challenges the "humans vs. technology" narrative.
👥 Who This Is For
- Facilitators guiding groups through complex challenges
- Educators seeking to enrich their teaching approach
- Consultants looking for deeper collaborative insights
- Anyone curious about making AI a genuine thinking partner
- Those interested in balancing AI capabilities with human wisdom
🎯 Core Concepts
- What happens when we shift our language from "artificial" to "collective" intelligence? And how can AI become that "sparring partner" that helps us see our own blind spots?
- The tricky bits: how do we build trust when AI can sometimes, well, get things wrong or even invent them? We touched on some practical ways to navigate this, acknowledging the reality gaps.
- A simple thinking process that emerged – called ICOF:
- Intention: What are we really trying to achieve here?
- Context: How do we frame this challenge richly?
- Output: What insights emerge from this dance?
- Feedback: How do we keep refining our collaboration?

🛠️ The tools I actually use
Ready to experiment? Here are the specific tools and frameworks I have demonstrated, plus others I regularly reach for when designing collaborative AI experiences.
6-Phase AI collaboration workflow
A practical framework for working with AI as a thinking partner, not just a productivity tool. This workflow keeps you in the director's seat while leveraging AI's capabilities for deeper exploration and iteration. Perfect for facilitators, coaches, and anyone who wants to maintain human agency while collaborating with Collective Intelligence.
Use this when you want to go beyond simple prompts and create genuine dialogue with AI around complex challenges, creative projects, or facilitation design.
