Trailer: Can AI be used for good?
Summary
The rise of artificial intelligence, while exciting, raises some hard questions: How can AI be used for good? Will AI harm us? How should AI be regulated?
In Technically Optimistic, a new podcast from Emerson Collective, our Chief Technology Officer, Raffi Krikorian, unpacks the potential promises and pitfalls of an AI-laden future.
Raffi and his guests will explore how this transformational technology can be developed and deployed with society’s best interests at heart. Drawing from his extensive career in technology, which ranges from building self-driving cars at Uber to serving as head of platform at Twitter, Raffi will speak with a variety of experts in the field about harnessing AI’s incredible capabilities while mitigating risks. He will seek to answer a question central to Emerson Collective’s mission: What does it take to build technology for good?
