Navigating Ethics and Identity in AI

 Best known as the CEO who helped transform Google from a promising startup into one of the best businesses in human history, Eric Schmidt has recently become one of the most important voices in the global conversation about artificial intelligence. He’s co-written two books on the subject including the New York Times bestseller Genesis: Artificial Intelligence, Hope, and the Human Spirit, co-written with longtime friend Henry Kissinger. He goes beyond examining what AI can do, and asks larger questions about the implications on human judgment, dignity, diplomacy, and democracy when intelligence is decoupled from morality.

In this episode, Mike Maples, Jr. of Floodgate speaks with Schmidt about  how AI is transforming human agency, global stability, and the very nature of innovation, from personal super intelligence to geopolitical risk. The conversation dives deep into the moral, philosophical, and strategic stakes of AI's rise, and what it means for the future of humanity.
