I’ve been thinking about this too—how the future belongs not to those who outpace AI, but to those who know how to dance with it. Emotional intelligence, contextual judgment, and moral reasoning aren’t just soft skills anymore—they’re the hard currency in an AI-augmented world.

That's cool, the call is to make your skills visible, not just listable. The moat isn’t just built—it’s shown in how we solve, connect, and create.

You've absolutely nailed it with that dancing metaphor!

The "dance with AI" is such a perfect way to frame it - it's not about leading or following, but finding that perfect rhythm where both partners enhance each other's movements. I might have to steal that for my next workshop!

What I'm finding fascinating lately is how these "moat skills" evolve differently for everyone. For some, it's about bringing deep industry context that AI lacks. For others, it's an uncanny ability to translate technical possibilities into human needs.

Just last week, I watched a colleague completely transform an AI-generated marketing strategy by applying her understanding of unspoken cultural nuances our target audience responds to - something no prompt engineering could capture.

The visibility piece you mentioned is crucial too. I've started documenting my "human value-adds" in AI collaborations, creating before/after examples that make these invisible contributions tangible. It's been eye-opening even for me!

Have you found specific ways to showcase your complementary skills alongside AI in your work? Always curious to hear how others are navigating this dance floor! 🕺💃
