We’ve spent all this time talking about artificial intelligence and we know what ‘artificial’ means, but what is ‘intelligence’? Who better to answer that than the International Supervisory Psychologist of Mensa, Kristóf Kovács? He is a senior research fellow at Eötvös Loránd University researching cognitive psychology and psychometrics. Most people are content to define 'intelligence' as 'that which an IQ score measures', - but what if it's your job to write the IQ test? To validate those tests? To know what they mean? How can we know what artificial intelligence is until we understand the real thing? Find out more in this episode! All this and our usual look at today's AI headlines.

What happens when two futurists talk with each other? You get this episode, with guest Richard Foster-Fletcher, who is doing amazing work in the UK building learning communities such as MKAI (Milton Keynes AI), he is a graduate of the MIT Artificial Intelligence Strategy Course and is the host of the ‘Boundless: Designing Our Digital Future’ podcast, of which I was the very first guest. In this conclusion of our interview, we talk about how the cultures of organizations facing disruption should change,and some of Richard's experiences in creating forums for debating AI policies. All this and some of today's AI headlines! Transcript and URLs referenced at HumanCusp Blog. |

You get this episode, with guest Richard Foster-Fletcher, who is doing amazing work in the UK building learning communities such as MKAI (Milton Keynes AI), he is a graduate of the MIT Artificial Intelligence Strategy Course and is the host of the ‘Boundless: Designing Our Digital Future’ podcast, of which I was the very first guest. We reach some heady heights talking about the eventual future of humans in symbiosis with AI, even touching on the Kardashev scale! And yet we also brought it back to the here and now with discussions about what AI learning communities are doing right now to help people understand AI more productively. All that and our first look at GPT-3! Transcript at HumanCusp Blog. |

| This show's amazing guest has seen naked brains... while they were still in use. This episode concludes the interview with Dr. Ryan D'Arcy. He is a neuroscientist, pictured here with one of his tools, an MRI machine. He co-founded HealthTech Connex Inc., and serves as President and Chief Scientific Officer. HealthTech Connex translates neuroscience advances into health technology breakthroughs. We met on the TEDx stage in Surrey BC, where he was speaking about how he helped Trevor Greene, a soldier who had his head split by an axe while serving in Afghanistan. See his TEDx talk here. In this episode, we talk about models of the structure of the brain, the role of pattern recognition, brain-machine interfaces by companies such as Neuralink, and how they might - or should - work. All that and of course our usual look at a headline or two about AI. Transcript at HumanCusp Blog. |
