In this week\u2019s episode of The Mindtools L&D Podcast, Don joins Ross D and Ross G to discuss: whether interest in AI has peaked; why Don believes the results reflect a breaking of old norms; the steady climb of 'showing value' and the relative decline of 'learning analytics'; the key challenges L&D professionals are facing; the things these professionals are doing now that they weren't doing a year ago. You can download a copy of the Global Sentiment Survey report here. In 'What I Learned This Week', Ross G drew an analogy between content in the pre-AI era and low-background steel. Don recommended A Knight's Own Book of Chivalry by Geoffroi de Charny. And Ross D referenced  the article 'An AI Agent Published a Hit Piece on Me' by Scott Shambaugh.
