It brought AI to the forefront of the conversation and turned it into something everyone could interact with. “And because of that, we entered into this new phase of a discussion that moved from ‘What does the technology do?’ to ‘What do humans have to do to be ready for the technology? and “What kind of society do we want to build and how will AI help us get there?” Hear his thoughts on the rise of AI in the latest episode of Work in Progress: A WorkingNation Podcast, recorded at the Aspen Ideas Festival.
