🏴‍☠️ Wanna know how to hire the best talents in AI? Look no further.

Here's your favorite Captain having a chat with one Jean-Francois Cloutier, CTO at Stamped, about all things AI, especially as they relate to the challenges of using AI in recruitment, and recruiting for AI, if you savvy.

We also get our spyglasses out and peruse the future of AI and its impact on humanity, in the end questioning what it means to be Human.

Our lively conversation highlights the evolution of AI and the use of commodity models, such as OpenAI's Chat GPT, in various industries. 🏴‍☠️
