Summary

This week, we have a special episode for you! There has been so much talk about AI over the last year or two, but not a lot of explanations. What is AI? What is the difference between AI and Machine Learning? How do they work? David sat down with Danu Mbanga, Director of Generative AI Solutions at Google, to get to the bottom of it all. This talk switches between a general overview of AI and an in-depth discussion about the meaning of intelligence. Danu has years of experience in this field so we hope you learn as much as we did! Enjoy.
