AI is here, and today is the worst it is ever going to be. But there are also over 8 billion human beings, so the biggest question of all is - how are we going to cooperate and even co-exist? Is AI here to take all the jobs or create economic and scientific super-abundance? And for human health, will we all carry a personal AI health agent in our pockets helping us live healthier and happier and prevent disease, and will AI cure every single cancer by 2030? At this stage, there are more questions than answers, which is why I invited the number one artificial intelligence futurist onto the show.

Steve Brown is a leading voice in the field of artificial intelligence. A former executive at Google DeepMind and Intel, he has delivered hundreds of information-packed and entertaining keynotes across five continents, inspiring audiences to take action with AI. ‍As a thought leader on AI, generative AI, autonomous agents, digital transformation, and the future impact of AI on business, education, and society, Over his 25-year career, Steve has held senior leadership roles, including Senior Director and in-house Futurist at Google DeepMind in London and Intel’s Chief Evangelist and Futurist. He is the co-founder of The Provenance Chain Network, a company providing supply chain transparency and security services for the U.S. Space Force, as well as a strategic advisor to two AI startups and a BCG Luminary.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
