My guest today is Fawzi Ammache. Fawzi is a UX Designer, AI Engineer and the creator of the Year 2049 Newsletter. When you look around and watch content on Artificial Intelligence, the perspective is predominantly negative.

AI is a threat to humanity's existence, AI distorts reality on mass by spreading misinformation, and AI, if given the power to, can convince people to nuke each other if put in the right circumstances. Some call for a complete halt, others for full steam ahead, so which is it?

In this episode, me and Fawzi talk about common misperceptions of artificial intelligence and debate whether it is a great equalizer or great oppressor of humanity. Stay tuned!
