AIS is a much more informal, relaxed, conversational experience. You can talk to it on WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook Messenger. It will be able to keep its memory of all the different things you've been talking about across those different sessions. In five years' time, I think there will be an ever-present relationship with AI that helps you make sense for the world around you. We'll be back in a lightning round where we run down some competitors and then tell them why Pi is better if it is Open AI and chat.
After Kara and Nayeema debate the pros and cons of AI personal assistants vs. human personal assistants vs. fake personal assistants, we turn to Mustafa Suleyman, the man who co-founded DeepMind. Now, he and his co-founders Reid Hoffman and Karén Simonyan have started Inflection AI, a startup that creates “personal AIs,” and they're launching with a chatbot called Pi.
Kara talks to Mustafa about whether or not Pi is "woke," the conversion of Suleyman’s former colleague, Geoffrey Hinton, and — oh yes — AI’s potential to destroy humanity.
BTW, in lieu of personal AI, you can reach out to Kara and Nayeema for advice on your burning questions regarding your career, love, life or anything else. Call 1-888-KARA-PLZ and leave us a voicemail.
