Ep 37: Is This The Last Book Written By a Human? Jeff Burningham
About this episode
In this profound and thought-provoking conversation, Kate vanderVoort (founder of the AI Success Lab) sits down with Jeff Burningham - tech entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and author of The Last Book Written by a Human: Becoming Wise in the Age of AI.
Jeff has built and invested in companies worth over $5 billion, co-founded Peak Capital Partners and Peak Ventures, and even ran for Governor of Utah. But today, he’s turning his attention to a far deeper question:
As machines become smarter, how do we become wiser?
This episode explores how technology, entrepreneurship, and spirituality intersect - and why the future of AI isn’t a technological problem but a human challenge.
Kate and Jeff unpack what it means to “rehumanise” business, how to bring consciousness into capitalism, and why our next evolution as leaders, parents, and humans depends on our ability to choose wisdom over speed, and connection over control.
