    Devshi Mehrotra on AI, justice, and public defense

    America’s criminal justice system relies on public defenders to represent anyone without access to a private attorney. But public defenders are chronically under-resourced and overburdened with caseloads. Can technology help lessen that load and, in effect, make the criminal justice system more just? This week’s guest, Devshi Mehrotra, says yes. Devshi is co-founder and CEO of JusticeText, a startup developing AI software to help lawyers search and review case material more efficiently and enhance police accountability. She joins Reid and Aria to talk about JusticeText’s offerings and opportunities, along with public-private partnerships and local governments’ evolving attitudes toward AI and innovation. Plus, a public defender shares her experience using JusticeText and Devshi demos the platform.  For more info on the podcast and transcripts of all the episodes, visit https://www.possible.fm/podcast/  Topics: 3:10 - Hellos and intros 6:47 - What inspired the creation of JusticeText 10:38 - What America’s public defenders are up against 12:35 - How JusticeText can help 14:32 - On being a for-profit company  18:11 - Creating a new market 20:47 - JusticeText’s customer base  23:33 - Midroll  23:41 - A testimony from a public defender using the platform 24:40 - Requests for new features 25:58 - JusticeText demo 28:50 - How AI is supporting, not replacing, public defenders’ jobs 30:23 - The intersection of government and technology 32:53 - How local governments are thinking about AI 34:59 - Other technologies that could improve the justice system 37:28 - What entrepreneurial advice Devshi would give her younger self  38:43 - The future of JusticeText  40:42 - Rapid-fire questions

    Bill Gates on possibility, AI, and humanity

    How many lives will be saved with the help of AI over the next decade? Reid and Aria sat down with Bill Gates to discuss his main areas of focus: climate change, energy, global health, and education—and how AI will help transform each of them. Taking a bird’s-eye view of society’s challenges, it’s easy to give in to pessimism. But as one of the most influential people in the world, Bill Gates has a unique perspective on how far humanity has come and what our potential—and timelines—for meaningful change really look like. He gets granular on everything from cows (5% of global emissions) to disease reduction and eradication (Guinea worm disease). At each turn, he has data at his fingertips to ground his beliefs. So, what current set of innovations is Bill most excited about? And what is realistically on the horizon for AI, climate change, energy, global health, and education?
