Todd Ault interviews Pedro Domingos, a world-renowned AI researcher, tech-industry insider, and the author of the best-selling book The Master Algorithm. This groundbreaking scientific book, released in 2017, introduced machine learning to a wide audience and was recommended by Bill Gates as "required reading for everyone to understand AI". Pedro's latest book is titled 2040: A Silicon Valley Satire, which explores the concept of an AI robot running for President. Tune in to hear Pedro provide insight into the origins of algorithms, their ethics, challenging limitations, and why backpropagation is driving the AI revolution.
"The goal of the book [2040: A Silicon Valley Satire] is for it to be a cautionary tale. In a sense, it's a caricature of where we are now. But it's also saying to people 'Look if we don't do anything - this is where we're headed' and it's not a good place."Pedro Domingos
