At Kühne Logistics University in Hamburg, she focuses on the human dynamics of teams—trading abstract theory for real research on leadership and inclusion. Lately, she explores the quiet cost of automation. Her talk on [how AI threatens belonging](/videos/1924-ai-s-threat-to-uniqueness-and-belonging) breaks down how tools like GitHub Copilot erase the productive friction that teams need to collaborate. She argues that while AI speeds up individual work, it isolates developers and weakens community building. Off campus, Brooke curates DisruptHR Hamburg. ## Past Sessions ### World Congress 2026 Europe - Virtual Stage · June 30, 2026 Online - [AI's threat to uniqueness and belonging](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1924-ai-s-threat-to-uniqueness-and-belonging) · 🎥 Watch recording ## Videos - [AI's threat to uniqueness and belonging](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1924-ai-s-threat-to-uniqueness-and-belonging) · Brooke Gazdag ## Links - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/brooke-gazdag/)
