NB64 – AI As Culture, Not Just Code
A discussion about how trut can have even more impact than technology when it comes to AI.
In this episode of the No Brainer podcast, Geoff Livingston and Greg Verdino chat with Dave and Helen Edwards, co-founders of the Artificiality Institute, to explore the profound impact of AI on human experience and organizational culture.
They discuss the philosophical and cultural shifts brought about by AI, the biases influencing narratives around productivity, and the importance of trust and AI literacy in navigating this new landscape.
The conversation emphasizes the need for leaders to understand not just the complexities of AI integration into their organization, but the broader human experience it shapes.
The Artificiality Institute is a nonprofit that researches, documents, and promotes a deeper, more human-centered understanding of the human experience in an age of increasing synthetic intelligence, or AI.
Through its work, Artificiality aims to foster meaningful human-AI collaboration and design systems that support, rather than supplant, human identity and well-being. Their annual Artificiality Summit is happening in Bend, Oregon, from October 23 through 25.
