    AI Q &A: Live with Sheela Clary and Chris Meador

    Thank you to the Village Green subscribers who tuned into the Village Green’s very first live conversation! My apologies for glitches and bad lighting on my part. This was my first go at video so am working out kinks! Chris Meador and I had fun, and covered a wide range of questions related to AI, from educational uses to the data center question to which jobs are likely to be the most AI-proof. I intend to do these with a range of folks about all sorts of things, about once per month, so feel free to pitch me people you think I should talk to.
