This is a hot topic! My take is that AI can SUPPLEMENT good coaching if used well. It is NOT good at - pushing back, challenging your comfort zone, guiding you holistically, holding you accountable to your own goals, being a human mirror that allows you to practice vulnerability. It IS good at - being an unlimited sounding board to challenge your mindset and blind spots, help you unpack something and see it in a different way, and sometimes say things that would be too hard to share with a human. But you do have to know how to use it to be "coached" by it vs venting.

@Miri Campbell it will only challenge as much as the user trains it is comfortable to challenge it! hah. Now, in fairness, a human might QUIT coaching if a coach challenges them too much too BUT it *can* happen in a way that it basically cannot with AI.

@Miri Campbell :) but that was like 7 years ago... webinar ads when they were at their peak. I am dipping a toe back into coaching again and including it as part of my ecosystem of offerings.
