In this episode of The Digital Executive Podcast, host Brian Thomas sits down with John Thomas Foxworthy, founder of the Global Institute of Data Science and a fractional Chief AI Officer of Turing Forge. With two decades of AI and machine learning expertise, Foxworthy delves into the elusive nature of human consciousness and its role—or lack thereof—in artificial intelligence. He explains why true machine consciousness remains a distant dream and highlights how marketing hype often overshadows the science behind AI.

Foxworthy also provides valuable insights into entering the AI field, debunking myths about the necessity of advanced coding skills or PhDs. He explores the advantages of no-code platforms, the evolving role of startups, and the industry’s bias toward manual coding. Packed with practical advice and candid industry observations, this episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about AI's future and how to navigate this dynamic field.

Tune in to hear the unfiltered perspective of a true AI expert!
