Misconceptions about AI's capabilities and the role of data are everywhere. Many believe AI is a singular, all-knowing entity, when in reality, it's a collection of algorithms producing intelligence-like outputs. Navigating and understanding the history and evolution of AI, from its origins to today's advanced language models is crucial. How do these developments, and misconceptions, impact your daily work? Are you leveraging the right tools for your needs, or are you caught up in the allure of cutting-edge technology without considering its practical application? Andriy Burkov is the author of three widely recognized books, The Hundred-Page Machine Learning Book, The Machine Learning Engineering Book, and recently The Hundred-Page Language Models book. His books have been translated into a dozen languages and are used as textbooks in many universities worldwide. His work has impacted millions of machine learning practitioners and researchers.

– Founder and CEO
@ SHADOKA (and NextChapter)
The integration of AI into everyday business operations raises questions about the future of work and human agency. With AI's potential to automate and optimize, how do we ensure that it complements rather than competes with human capabilities? What measures can be taken to prevent AI from overshadowing human input and creativity? How do we strike a balance between embracing AI's benefits and preserving the essence of human contribution? Faisal Hoque is the founder and CEO of SHADOKA, NextChapter, and other companies. He also serves as a transformation and an innovation partner for CACI, an $8B company focused on U.S. national security. He volunteers for several organizations, including MIT IDEAS Social Innovation Program. He is also a contributor at the Swiss business school IMD, Thinkers50, the Project Management Institute (PMl), and others. As a founder and CEO of multiple companies, he is a three-time winner of Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ and Fast 500™ awards. He has developed more than 20 commercial platforms and worked with leadership at the U.S. DoD, DHS, GE, MasterCard, American Express, Home Depot, PepsiCo, IBM, Chase, and others. For their innovative work, he and his team have been awarded several provisional patents in the areas of user authentication, business rule routing, and metadata sorting. In the episode, Richie and Faisal explore the philosophical implications of AI on humanity, the concept of AI as a partner, the potential societal impacts of AI-driven unemployment, the importance of critical thinking and personal responsibility in the AI era, and much more.
