About the book:
The Last Book Written by a Human explores what leadership, judgment and meaning look like in a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence and automation. Rather than focusing on fear or hype, the book invites leaders to return to the inner capacities that technology cannot replace: clarity, discernment, presence and human wisdom.
At its core, the book is about learning how to lead well—especially when decisions are complex, data is abundant and pressure is constant. For credit professionals and finance leaders, this means strengthening not just systems and policies, but the human judgment behind them.
About the author:
Jeff Burningham
Jeff Burningham is the author of The Last Book Written by a Human: Becoming Wise in the Age of AI (Simon & Schuster), a thought-provoking exploration of what it means to stay deeply human in an increasingly automated world. In the book, Burningham draws on decades of experience building companies, investing in founders, and leading communities to examine how we can cultivate wisdom, empathy, and purpose as artificial intelligence accelerates around us.
A serial entrepreneur and venture capitalist, Jeff started his career building a tech startup in college and later founded Peak Capital Partners and Peak Ventures, establishing himself as a major player in real-estate, venture capital, and technology with multibillion-dollar assets under management by the time he was in his 30s. Drawing from his business journey, his run for governor of Utah in 2020, and his lifelong interest in consciousness, spirituality, and human potential, Jeff brings a unique vantage point to the intersection of leadership, innovation, and meaningful community building. Jeff previously served as a Bishop in his local congregation, an experience that profoundly shaped his views on service, faith, and the human spirit.
With a compelling blend of business acumen, spiritual inquiry, and storytelling, Jeff reframes the dialogue around AI: It’s not just about replacing humans - it’s about recovering what makes us human.
He is a happily married father of four, a proud grandfather, and lives in Provo, Utah where he continues to dedicate his time, talents, and resources to be a leading voice that bridges the gap between technology, spirituality, and government in order to ensure human flourishing in an era of highly intelligent machines.
