We talk with Dr. Ben Green about what AI data centers really cost, from nonstop noise and pollution to the massive drain on water and energy. The bigger question is this the future we want, or are we pouring resources into something fundamentally unsustainable?

Dr. Mohammad Hossein Jarrahi joins us to tackle the big question…will AI take over society, or can we learn to work together? He argues that AI isn’t something we can stop. The real challenge is building a symbiotic relationship where humans and machines evolve together.

Dr. Cansu Canca dives into the complicated world of AI ethics, including how hidden bias quietly shapes AI systems. It’s a clear, human, and surprisingly approachable overview of how we can attempt to fix ethical problems in AI models.

We talk with Stephen M. Fiore about his research on human-AI collaboration and how it extends from Earth-based decision systems to space missions. His work examines how people and intelligent systems coordinate, adapt, and solve problems together in complex, high-stakes environments.

Jocelyn Burnham is passionate about AI and shares that passion with her students. She invites audiences to experience AI firsthand, question assumptions, and form their own independent views.

Gambling is being radically transformed by the internet and AI, and Dr. Kasra Ghaharian joins us to break down what that shift really means. From there, we zoom out to explore how AI is reshaping the world at large and where it’s all headed next.

We talk with Daniel S. Schiff of Purdue University about how AI is reshaping culture, work, art, and everyday life, exploring what we gain, what we risk losing, and how humanity can adapt.

Together with Dr. Joanna Bryson, we explore what AI really is and discuss how humans can regulate this new technology in a way that benefits all.
