Our latest project Automation Talks is a podcast where we believe the world around us is changing way quicker than expected. Artificial intelligence, automation, and robotics will make this shift as significant as the shift towards mechanization in prior generations of agriculture and manufacturing.
While some jobs will be lost, and many others created, almost all will change! We will all change as a society. This podcast is a space for genuine and insightful conversations where humans discuss the future of their species in an era of machines, automation, and AI.
Our host, João Fernandes, alongside our invited guest speakers, will discuss the impact of the most bleeding-edge technology.
Was your New Year’s resolution this year to listen to more podcasts? We have the perfect solution for you. At the end of each episode, we always have a challenge—the automation challenge. We challenge our guests to recommend a podcast to listen to, a book to read, and a person to meet or learn about. Here are the recommendations of the first 10 podcast for you to listen to:
