AI Won't Become God. But It Will Change Everything. | Cory Doctorow Live in Philadelphia

Cory Doctorow's new book, The Reverse Centaur’s Guide to Life After A.I., chronicles the hype about the world-changing disruption that is artificial intelligence, how we got here and how we can get to a place where A.I. works for us, not the other way around. Doctorow sits down with David Williams, Philadelphia-based writer and consultant, whose Substack, A Short Distance Ahead, traces the history of A.I. from 1950 to today. Hosted at Fitler Club in Center City Philadelphia. 00:00:00 Welcome 00:05:00 Intro 00:08:16 Conversation Begins The Philadelphia Citizen: https://www.thephiladelphiacitizen.org Get Doctorow's Book: https://headhousebooks.com/book/97803... #CoryDoctorow #AI #artificialintelligence
