I have a deep passion for studying and exploring the human experience—scientifically, spiritually, artistically, and everything in between. Recently, I developed an interest in exploring how different “ways of knowing” and communicating can be applied to the development of artificial intelligence. I'm so glad I found someone interesting to discuss it with! The guest on this podcast episode is Alex Hawk, a physicist and engineer with an interest in AI and machine learning (an expert in a lot of things I’m not!) In this episode we talk about artificial intelligence, human-robot interactions, non-violent communication, problems of power, and more. Alex will be back next month to clarify and refine some of the things he said in this episode, so stay tuned! And if anyone has any thoughts in response to any of the questions from this episode, shoot me an email: [email protected] I would so love to hear from you.
