Sally Kohn: Why do you think science fiction is really important when it comes to imagining or thinking about technology and innovation? And could you also talk to us a little bit about the process of writing this particularly interesting collaboration with Kai Fu Lee, who's the ex head of Google China. She says she visited so many scholars, researchers and even those who doing the real stuff in the lab or in the startup companies before coming up with an idea for her book AI 2041. Sally Kohn: We need to create some positive and more neutral imagination towards technology. Otherwise there's no way we can leverage them to make a better good.
