This is just the tip of how deep this conversation gets with Mo. You are sure to walk away with a better view of the impact AI will have on human life, purpose and connection. How can we best balance our desire for progress and convenience with the importance of embracing the messiness and imperfections of the human experience?  QUOTES: “Every task we've ever assigned to AI became better than us.” “We also influence AI through our behaviors. That's what most people don't realize that every time you swipe on Instagram, you've taught A.I. something.” “If we can influence the data that it's fed, we will influence its behavior.” “Taking control is not just about the code and the control code, it's also about the data, [...] and the data is not just the books. The data includes human behavior.” “We're more lonely today, even though we have ten ex more friends on our friends list.” “We want to sell it as this is good for humanity so that we hire more developers,and we convince the consumers, and we can stand on TED talk stages and give ultra larger than life speeches and so on, but at the end of the day, it's all about making more money.” Follow Mo Gawdat: Website: https://www.mogawdat.com/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCilMYYyoot7vhLn4Tinzmmg  Twitter: https://twitter.com/mgawdat  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mo_gawdat/  Get ready to unlock your true potential and enjoy an unparalleled listening experience with our Impact Theory subscription service at https://
