I recently joined Vikas Raj of ResilienceVC on the PNYX podcast to debate hot topics in AI. Three issues and themes we discussed:
AI’s Clear and Present Dangers:
We explored the surge in AI-driven misinformation, deepfakes, and surveillance, as well as persistent bias affecting marginalized communities.
AI as the Great Equalizer:
We envisioned a world where AI dramatically reduces the cost of expertise. Imagine a Stanford education or personalized healthcare costing pennies, or having AI tutors, financial advisors, and mental health support at your fingertips for minimal cost.
The Regulatory Tightrope:
We debated the delicate balance between fostering AI innovation and preventing AI misuse. I shared insights from a recent conversation with Senator Chuck Schumer, who admitted that crafting effective AI regulation is one of the most challenging issues he’s faced.
