Are We Raising AI… or Is AI Raising Us? | Professor De Kai on The Dov Baron Show

🔊 Listen Now:

🧠 AI isn’t a tool—it’s a mirror.

We keep asking the wrong questions: Is AI a god or a slave? Will it destroy us or save us? But what if the real danger isn’t AI at all—but us?

In this eye-opening episode, Professor De Kai, one of the pioneering minds behind AI and machine learning, joins Dov Baron to unravel the hidden dangers of AI—and why the real threat isn’t Skynet but the invisible ways AI is already controlling our decisions, our relationships, and even our identities.

Professor De Kai, a founding fellow of Computational Linguistics, was instrumental in developing the first global-scale online language translator (a precursor to Google Translate and Microsoft Translate). As a former member of Google’s AI Ethics Council, he has spent decades at the intersection of AI, ethics, cognitive science, and social impact.

🔥 In this episode, we uncover: ✔️ The Hollywood AI Myth: Why AI taking over the world is a distraction from the real problem

. ✔️ The Invisible Puppet Strings: How AI algorithms manipulate what we see, think, and even believe

. ✔️ AI is Not a Tool—It’s a Child: How we’re raising AI by feeding it our worst behaviors

. ✔️ The Psychology of Bias: How AI amplifies our unconscious tribalism—and the dangerous consequences

. ✔️ The Governance Illusion: Why regulations alone won’t save us—and what really needs to change

. ✔️ The Future of Consciousness & AI: Will AI evolve past us, or will we evolve with it?

⚡ If you’re a leader, thinker, or just someone who isn’t satisfied with the surface-level AI conversation, this is an episode you cannot afford to miss.
