Listen ""Humans Evolved as Ultimate Context Machines": A Conversation with Dr. Robert Engels, head of AI Futures Lab at Capgemini, on the Future of Generative AI"
Episode Synopsis
On the Radio 4 Brainport podcast Podcasts 4 Brainport, host Iman Mossavat engages Robert Engels, Head of AI Futures Lab at Capgemini, in a discussion on the role of context and abstraction in AI. With 36 years of experience, Engels examines why current generative AI systems, like GPT-4, excel at tasks yet fail in complex, real-world settings.
Robert argues, “Two things are underperforming in the world of generative AI—abstraction and logical reasoning.” Robert underscores the need for AI to adopt a world model akin to philosophical reasoning: "Plato and Socrates understood this when they built logics—they looked at the world and tried to grasp its principles."
