H.B.R. presents. Hello my name is Azim Azar and you're listening to the Exponential View podcast.

Every week I'm in deep conversation with a brilliant mind exploring the exponential era in which we are living.

This podcast is multi-disciplinary so on some weeks you'll hear me discuss our future with a technologist and other episodes might feature a writer, a politician or a historian.

In these uncertain times, when the rate of technological change is ever increasing, I want to

offer you the most insightful thinking on the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.

Before we get on to today's conversation, I want to thank you for taking the time to listen to the Exponential View podcast.

If you can share your support by getting one step further, sign up to the podcast using whatever app you are listening to it on right now and do give us a

five-star rating if you use the iTunes app it is extremely helpful to help other

people find the podcast thank you. My guest today is Andrew Ingh, one of the world's most experienced

artificial intelligence practitioners. Andrew is well known as the co-founder of Corsera,

the world's largest online learning platform. He's also the man who

built the AI capabilities at Google and Baidu from the ground up. This is a remarkably candid conversation

with someone who has been at the heart of integrating AI into companies from the beginning.

Turns out even Google was a skeptic.

Andrew explains why AI, or Automation on Steroids, as he calls it not only enhances a business,

but fundamentally changes it, why it's crucial to start with small AI projects,

and why an AI strategy has come after an implementation of those first projects, not before.

And if you're curious to hear what tech billionaires sound like when they chat about the

Holy Grail, artificial general intelligence, then stick around.
