In Episode #36 Trailer, host John Sherman talks with Jeremie and Eduard Harris, CEO and CTO of Gladstone AI. Gladstone AI is the private company working most closely with the US government on assessing AI risk. The Gladstone Report, published in February, was the first public acknowledgment of AI risk reality by the US government in any way. These are two very important people doing incredibly important work. The full interview lasts more than 2 hours and will be broken into two shows, this the second of the two.
