Deus ex machina: how AI is reshaping us and our world

Think about it: AI chooses your next song in Spotify, your next video in YouTube, your next news item in Flipboard, which updates from friends and family you see on Facebook, and more.

Recently I had the opportunity to moderate a discussion between three AI experts: Danny Lange, who led AI at Uber and Amazon before jumping to Unity; Beena Ammanath, Executive Director of Deloitte AI Institute and Founder of Humans for AI; Cindy Gordon, CEO of SalesChoice and a writer at Forbes.

We chatted about:

  • How much impact AI has today
  • Surveillance capitalism
  • Reality bubbles
  • Inclusion and normalization of bias
  • Deepfakes and identifying what is real
  • Building responsible AI

Please enjoy … along with a new intro style and new intro music!
