So what do you need to know to prepare for the next 5, 10, or 25 years of a world increasingly impacted by artificial intelligence? How could AI change your business and your life irreparably? Our guest today, Mo Gawdat, an AI expert and former Chief Business Officer at Google [X], is going to break down what you need to understand about AI and how it is radically altering our workplaces, careers, and even the very fabric of our society. Mo Gawdat is the host of the popular podcast, Slo Mo, and the author of three best-selling books. After a 30-year career in tech, including working at Google's “moonshot factory” of innovation, Mo has made AI and happiness his primary research focuses.
