Welcome back to What’s NEXT, the podcast exploring the technology of the future. This week, we’re sharing another conversation from our series of interviews at the Web Summit conference earlier this year.

In this episode, Samsung NEXT's Scott Armanini speaks with Element AI founder JF Gagné. They discuss JF's journey from programming novice to raising more than $100 million in funding for Element AI. They also talked about how AI can help businesses take a new approach to old problems, and how “AI for good" can potentially address some of the biggest social challenges of the 21st Century.
