Mo Gawdat | The Future of Artificial Intelligence and How You Can Save Our World | Talks at Google

Mo Gawdat discusses his book "Scary Smart: The Future of Artificial Intelligence and How You Can Save Our World." Artificial intelligence is smarter than humans. It can process information at lightning speed and remain focused on specific tasks without distraction. AI can see into the future, predicting outcomes and even use sensors to see around physical and virtual corners. So why does Intelligence frequently get it so wrong? The answer is us. Humans design the algorithms that define the way that AI works, and the processed information reflects an imperfect world. Does that mean we are doomed? In Scary Smart, Mo Gawdat draws on his considerable expertise to answer this question and to show what we can all do now to teach ourselves and our machines how to live better.

After a 30 year career in tech and serving as Chief Business Officer at Google X, Google's 'moonshot factory' of innovation, Mo has made happiness his primary topic of research, diving deeply into literature and conversing on the topic with some of the wisest people in the world. In 2014, motivated by the tragic loss of his son, Ali, Mo began pouring his findings into his international bestselling book, Solve for Happy: Engineer Your Path to Joy. His mission to help one billion people become happier, #OneBillionHappy, is his moonshot attempt to honor Ali by spreading the message that happiness can be learned and shared. In 2020, Mo launched his global, chart-topping podcast, Slo Mo: A Podcast with Mo Gawdat, in which he conducts extraordinary interviews with his wisest friends to explore the profound questions and obstacles we all face in the pursuit of purpose in our lives.
