Episode 5 | Guest: David Shapiro - AI Researcher | Talking AI Benefits, Dangers, & AI Governance

NEW EPISODE: Host, Denise Holt, welcomes David Shapiro, an AI researcher and thought leader, as the special guest on this episode of the Spatial Web AI podcast. In this broad range conversation, Dave discusses the polarizing views on AI, acknowledging both its potential benefits and dangers. He emphasizes the need for careful deployment and solving problems that arise with new technologies. David also touches upon existential questions raised by creating super intelligent AI. He believes that while there may be a painful transition period, society has historically adapted to technological changes. The biggest challenges he sees in transitioning to AGI and ASI are organization and communication due to rapid advancements in AI. Additionally, he discusses how technology will change job markets and introduces the concept of post-labor economics where people will need to find new meaning outside of work. The conversation also explores how spatial web technologies could enhance accountability and prevention in various domains such as construction site safety or highway incidents involving unsecured cargo on trucks.
