Ep. 48 - Artificial Intelligence Part 2
In the second part of our continuing series about Artificial Intelligence, we tackle some major questions:
What really is AI? What’s the difference between AI and AGI? Should we feel optimism or existential dread? Should we be excited or scared? (Hint: The answer is probably a little of both!)
Kelley and Erin’s conversation will probably leave you with mixed feelings, but the reality is simple: AI is here. It will grow. It is going to be a reality for all of us moving forward. So rather than deeply value it or deeply condemn it, our focus should probably be on finding connections with each other and AI as we move forward into this brave new world.
