When it comes to technology impacting society and business, we keep seeing the same patterns, fears of automation, changing ways of working, scams and societal changes.
History is a great teacher in how we can learn from the past and be confident about the future.
This week on The Workplace Podcast, William welcomes Tom Standage, Deputy Editor of The Economist and editor of The World Ahead, to discuss "What History Can Teach Us About an AI Future."
Tom, a bestselling author and expert on technology's social and historical impact, shares valuable insights:
- The constancy of human nature amidst technological change
- Why experiencing "AI vertigo" is a sign of engagement
- AI's transformative potential in coding and software development
- How AI is addressing skills bias and potentially reducing inequality
- A balanced view on the ethical concerns surrounding AI
- AI's role in accelerating digital transformation
This episode is a must listen as Tom brings a wealth of knowledge from his experience at The Economist and his authorship of seven history books, including "The Victorian Internet" and "A History of the World in 6 Glasses."
