A few episodes back, we presented Tristan Harris and Aza Raskin’s
talk The AI Dilemma. People inside the companies that are
building generative artificial intelligence came to us with their
concerns about the rapid pace of deployment and the problems that
are emerging as a result. We felt called to lay out the
catastrophic risks that AI poses to society and sound the alarm
on the need to upgrade our institutions for a post-AI world.

The talk resonated - over 1.6 million people have viewed it on
YouTube as of this episode’s release date. The positive reception
gives us hope that leaders will be willing to come to the table
for a difficult but necessary conversation about AI.

However, now that so many people have watched or listened to the
talk, we’ve found that there are some AI myths getting in the way
of making progress. On this episode of Your Undivided
Attention, we debunk five of those misconceptions.
