Can AI do everything? Technologist and founder Don Finley says—no. And what it can’t do might matter more than what it can.
In this bold conversation, Don joins host Raju Panjwani to explore what happens when we automate too much—and what’s left when we choose to stay human.
Don is the founder of FINdustries, where he has led product development for startups and Fortune 100 companies. He’s also the host of The Human Code podcast, and one of the few technologists who can talk neural networks and spiritual integration in the same breath.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why AI should never replace what brings you joy
- What agentic AI systems are—and how Don’s team uses them
- The Kilimanjaro moment that rewired Don’s entire leadership model
- The tension between cutting corners vs. cutting ego
- How AI is mirroring our inner consciousness back at us
- Why work-life integration beats balance—and how Don builds teams around it
If you’re a founder, leader, or creative-wrestling with how to stay present in a world obsessed with speed, this episode is your reminder:
Some things are worth keeping human.
