Frequency - Robot or real? Employees know.

Can employees really tell when a CEO message is written by AI? And does it matter?

Hosts Chuck Gose and Jenni Field explore the fascinating findings of a new Harvard Business Review article that tested whether AI could effectively ghostwrite internal messages from CEOs—and how employees respond when they think a message came from a machine.

This quick clip dives into:

🔹 The blurred line between AI and authentic leadership
🔹 Risks of using unedited AI content in executive communications
🔹 Why internal communicators still play a critical role, even with generative AI tools

Whether you’re a communications professional, HR leader, or employee experience strategist, this conversation offers a sharp take on the intersection of AI in the workplace, leadership credibility, and modern internal communication strategies.
