Are humans themselves just like "little ChatGPT bots" programmed to solve problems? This perspective highlights the human drive to address challenges like diseases, climate change, and inequality, seeing AI as a potentially powerful tool.


This Podcast touches upon the negative societal impacts of current algorithms, particularly those driving internet behavior.
