Community Glue: Relational Intelligence in the Age of AI

PRICE OF EVENT 200 THB
"We have spent the last decade teaching people to speak the language of machines. The next decade will define who can still speak the language of humans.
Join us for The Human Operating System, where we explore the 'Paradox of Proficiency.' Backed by labor market data from Harvard and the Financial Times, we will debunk the myth that AI makes soft skills irrelevant. In fact, as algorithms take over the technical heavy lifting, the market value of 'Community Glue'—our ability to trust, trade, and coordinate—is skyrocketing.
Come for the data; stay for the connection. Learn why your Relational Intelligence (RQ) is your ultimate hedge against automation."

#### Session 1: The Economic Case for Connection (The "Previous Things")

Goal: Ground the event in hard data to validate the "soft" topic.

• Recap of the Landscape: Review the "Paradox of Proficiency."
• Fact: Jobs requiring high social skills grew by 12% (1980–2012), while pure math/technical jobs shrank.
• Insight: The "Solitary Genius" is obsolete. The highest wages now go to the "High Math + High Social" quadrant.
• Takeaway: AI automates the technical task; it cannot automate the coordination of that task.

This event is organized, moderated, and facilitated by Dr. Stefan Ručman, an expert in innovation and sustainability with a strong interdisciplinary background spanning technology, education, and human-centered systems.
Dr. Ručman currently works on innovative technologies designed to strengthen confidence, motivation, and agency in younger and underage people, with a particular focus on ethical design, psychological safety, and long-term developmental impact.
With experience across research, education, and community-building, Dr. Ručman brings a systems-level perspective to the challenges of the AI era, focusing on how trust, coordination, and relational intelligence function as critical infrastructure in both organizations and communities.
