We used to own things. Now we rent them , and in some cases that includes our ability to think.
In this episode of Leading Change, I unpack the subscriptionification of everything, from Netflix and workout apps to enterprise software and your favorite AI tools. What started with a $9.99 music plan has turned into monthly fees for cognition.
⚠️ I hit my limit this week after running into paywall after paywall just trying to do research.
So we are talking about:
- Why the rise of AI is accelerating subscription culture
- How tools like ChatGPT and Claude are creating dependency
- The growing cost of access to knowledge and cognitive outsourcing
- What we’re losing when we “rent” our workflows, our thoughts, and our time
And most importantly, I ask the question:
Are we okay with our brains being billed out monthly like software?
