We are talking about AI with David Mattin. The fundamental issues: AI and other technologies are evolving at a speed that our societies can’t adapt around. So are we moving at a faster speed that we can handle? What are the consequences of AI in regards to popular culture? Politics? Creative industries and our children? Lastly, what did Karl Marx know about technology that is highly relevant today?

Guest: David Mattin is the founder of New World Same Humans, a weekly newsletter on trends, technology, and society. David's business, innovation and trends journalism has appeared everywhere from Fast Company to the Guardian to Google Think Quarterly. As experienced broadcaster, David has also written and presented documentaries for BBC Radio 4. He sits on the World Economic Forum's Global Future Council on Consumption.

Used right, AI can be the golden age for creativity.
Promt writer is already a profession.
If we are not careful, we could be realizing Aldon Huxleys Brave New World.
