Listen "How Do We Manage to Stop Freaking Out About AI?"

Episode Synopsis

Are you excited or frightened by AI? Is it helping us cope with everyday life more effectively – or destroying human creativity and agency? 

These are some of the big questions tackled in today’s conversation with Greg Beato – a tech writer and co-author of the book “SuperAgency - What Could Possibly Go Right With Our Future”.

Written with LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman, the book explores the ways we can make AI work for us rather than against us – and encourages us all to get excited about the possibilities of the future.

Greg and Stephanie discuss why AI is the biggest technological breakthrough in 300 years, what it means for our concept of privacy, the dangers it might present, and how to really use AI to our advantage. 

This chat is a deep dive into what the future of technology can and will look like and how to really embrace it.
