EP41: The Lowdown on GenAI Tools for Speakers
Can artificial intelligence really coach us to be better communicators, or does true connection still require human intervention? Karin Reed is joined by returning guest, communication coach and tech strategist Maggie Miller, for a conversation about how AI is reshaping the way we prepare, present, and connect. What begins with Karin testing Microsoft’s Speaker Coach unfolds into a deeper look at where technology helps and where it falls short. Can an algorithm truly capture your tone, your energy, your presence in the room? Karin shares what AI gets right, things like pacing, filler words, and vocal variety, and what it still can’t grasp: nuance, emotion, and context.
