David Wheeler: I have a feeling like I and you, we've been saying for some time, look, you should expect this sort of disruption. That's just the curve we're on. We can't tell you exactly how, what or when, but it's coming. And now it's here in a way that has grabbed people's attention as though where did that come from? He says he defines AGI as systems that have as much general intelligence, as much common sense, as much flexibility of thinking as humans. The best way for me to give retrospective on 2022 is by looking at two domains with an AI as representative case - industrial robotics and calisthenics.
Today's episode first appeared on Peter Scott's (excellent!) AI and You podcast.
Peter Scott and David Wood are two of the most recognized AI futurists. Both are respected authors, speakers, and visionaries. Peter is a popular TEDx speaker and long-time NASA engineer. David was recently named one of the "top 100 most influential people in technology".
Today's discussion is a must-listen in which we discuss the future of technology, the future of work, and the future of humanity. In this one, Peter hosted and the three of us had a round table discussion about everything from generative AI to sentience. Let us know what you think after listening. Our DMs are open on Twitter and LinkedIn.
