The Art of Innovation: AI, Accessibility & Law

Is our personal information at risk of being stolen? (Probably.) Do we truly understand the barriers people using wheelchairs encounter every day? (Probably not.) Is it possible for divorce proceedings to be a little less nasty? (Here's hoping!)

This episode of Real Talk celebrates The Art of Innovation, as highlighted in the May issue of Edify. But first... 

5:30 | When's the last time you went to a movie theatre? Cinemas helped shape our connection to arts and culture for decades, but they've fallen on hard times in recent years. In fact, many of them (that haven't already closed) are fighting to survive. Director Raphael Sbarge's film "Only in Theatres" tells the story of the revered Laemmle family, and their mission to save their legendary Los Angeles theatre.

30:25 | When Nidhi Hegde, Arne Andres, and Melissa Bourgeois see red flags, hurdles, and inefficiencies, they do something about it. That's what makes them innovators, featured in the May issue of Edify. Do divorces have to be nasty and expensive? Does AI have to go hand-in-hand with privacy risk? Do daily tasks in a wheelchair have to be so damn inconvenient? Our Real Talk Round Table panelists say no!

58:25 | With the UCP and NDP polling neck and neck, and the Alberta election less than four weeks away, it's no surprise this week's Trash Talk presented by Local Environmental Services is 100% politics!
