️Grisha Pavlotsky, Chief Transformation Officer at Miro

Opening paragraph

This episode shares a conversation between Grisha Pavlotsky, CTO
of Miro, and Eva Simone Lihotzky. It examines trust as a
practical design problem in teams, AI systems, and everyday
decision-making. The conversation is for leaders, builders, and
parents trying to make sense of how judgment, accountability, and
authority shift when AI becomes part of how work and learning
happen. It focuses on what needs to be made explicit - intent,
guardrails, and decision logic - rather than assumed.

Episode overview

Grisha draws on his work leading transformation at Miro and his
experience raising four children to explore how trust holds - or
breaks - when information is abundant and increasingly
synthesized. The discussion moves between organizations and
families, treating them as parallel systems facing the same
challenge: people are no longer short on answers, but on the
ability to judge, contextualize, and disagree productively. Along
the way, the episode questions current education models,
critiques optional AI adoption, and argues that trust depends
less on confidence and more on transparency about how decisions
are made and who remains accountable.

Key themes discussed

Trust as alignment on intent plus visibility into decision
frameworks, not just emotional safety

How AI amplifies confidence without guaranteeing expertise,
complicating collaboration

Why probabilistic systems require clear guardrails, not vague
goals

The shift from producing synthesis to judging and challenging
synthesized viewpoints

Education moving from teaching facts to navigating competing
narratives

Identity and ego as the real blockers in large-scale
transformation

Leadership responsibility in making AI adoption mandatory
rather than optional

Parenting and organizational leadership as the same
sense-making problem at different scales

A recurring reference is the idea - attributed to Satya Nadella -
that trust is built through consistency over time, and what that
consistency demands in an AI-mediated world.
