Life with Machines

Baratunde Thurston
Life with Machines

Life With Machines explores the human side of the A.I. revolution – the good, the bad, and the weird – and asks, “How can these machines help us become more human?”  In this video podcast, host Baratunde Thurston helps us understand our rapidly emerging future, and encourages us to shape it and laugh at the absurdity. Baratunde demystifies A.I. and makes it personal with a wide range of guests: entrepreneurs, artists, policymakers, technologists, business leaders, creators, educators, and scientists. Maybe even an A.I. or two. Everyone should have a say in where technologies like A.I. take us, not just a handful of people in California who think nitro cold brew on tap should be a human right.  Join us in candid conversations and fun experiments, as we imagine and co-create our life, with machines. Life with Machines is sponsored by Lenovo and produced in partnership with Rich Roll and Voicing Change Media.
