In this episode of Lead with AI, Dr. Tamara Nall speaks with Howie Xu, Chief AI and Innovation Officer at Gen Digital, who reveals Norton Neo just 24 hours after its launch. Xu shares how their new AI-powered browser aims to disrupt the 30-year-old browsing paradigm by learning user behavior and staying ahead of their needs, like having "Superman sitting next to you" while you browse. With Gen Digital's 500 million users and world-class cybersecurity intelligence behind Norton and LifeLock, Xu explains how they're addressing the reality that only 39% of people trust AI by creating safe AI experiences. The conversation explores the challenges of innovating within large corporations, comparing how Google invented transformer models but OpenAI launched ChatGPT first. Xu envisions a future where AI will disrupt transportation, healthcare, and education within 5-10 years, predicting that AI scientists will eventually win Nobel Prizes in all remaining categories after winning physics and chemistry in 2024. For listeners wanting to experience this browser revolution first-hand, Norton Neo is available at neotoday.ai, though Xu warns the current activation process has limited availability. The episode concludes with Xu's bold assertion that AI is simultaneously both overhyped and under hyped, setting the stage for a future where knowledge work gets completely reimagined rather than simply automated.
