Should We Fear Technology? Ft. Ahmed Hatem


Listen Later

This week I sat down with my friend, Ahmed Hatem, originally from Egypt, Ahmed came to UBC to study computer science and microbiology and I regard him as one of the smartest people I know. We dig into the potential pitfalls technology has to offer us in the coming years, the lack of self-reflection from humanity as a whole, God algorithms and much more. It was incredibly enlightening for me and I hope you all enjoy!
