1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,600
Welcome back, deep divers.

2
00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:02,520
Ready for another deep dive?

3
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:03,360
Always.

4
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:05,800
Okay, so today we're gonna be tackling AI

5
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:07,400
and the future of jobs.

6
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:08,520
Ooh, interesting.

7
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:10,960
Yeah, we've got the super interesting interview

8
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:12,720
with Gilbert Hungbo.

9
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:13,560
Okay.

10
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:14,680
He's the director general

11
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,360
of the international labor organization, the ILO.

12
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:18,480
Right, right.

13
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,880
And by the end of this deep dive,

14
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:22,560
I think we'll have a much better understanding

15
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,960
of how AI is going to reshape the career landscape.

16
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:26,800
I'm ready.

17
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:27,960
All right, so right off the bat,

18
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,640
Hungbo doesn't sugarcoat anything.

19
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:31,280
He's like, yeah, AI is gonna lead

20
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,440
to millions of jobs being lost.

21
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:34,840
Wow, he just puts it out there, huh?

22
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:36,120
But, and here's the thing.

23
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,680
He also says that AI is gonna create millions of jobs.

24
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,680
Okay, so it's kind of, it's a double-edged sword then.

25
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,640
It is, he calls it a job churn.

26
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,400
A job churn, so it's not just a simple,

27
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:46,920
like robots are taking over.

28
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:47,760
No, no.

29
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,680
It's more nuanced, like a shift.

30
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,920
Exactly, yeah, some jobs go away,

31
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:53,440
but different ones are created.

32
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:54,880
Like a wave, you know?

33
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:55,720
Okay.

34
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:56,760
Like a big wave hitting the shore.

35
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:57,600
Okay.

36
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,240
And some people, unfortunately, they get swept away.

37
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:00,080
Yeah.

38
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,520
But some people learn how to ride that wave.

39
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:02,800
I like that analogy.

40
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,240
And they find new opportunities.

41
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:05,640
And that's really what he's emphasized.

42
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:06,480
Yeah.

43
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,560
Like being adaptable and always learning new skills.

44
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,760
Like you have to be ready to learn new things

45
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:12,840
your whole career.

46
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,360
Exactly, it's not enough to just learn one thing and be set.

47
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,560
And this isn't just about factory jobs, right?

48
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:19,520
Right, not at all.

49
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,240
This is impacting everyone.

50
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:22,680
Absolutely, it's across the board.

51
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,240
Yeah, so Hungbo gives some examples.

52
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,320
He talks about interpreters, like translators,

53
00:01:27,320 --> 00:01:31,000
being replaced by AI powered translation tools.

54
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:31,840
Yeah, that makes sense.

55
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,880
And then recruiters using AI to like go through tons

56
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:35,720
of resumes.

57
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:36,760
Right, to sort through them all.

58
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,240
And even speech writers feeling the pressure of AI.

59
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,800
Speech writers, so even creative jobs.

60
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,360
Yeah, yeah.

61
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:45,200
That's why.

62
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,360
It's a little unsettling to me, honestly.

63
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,480
I mean, I work in communications.

64
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:50,320
Right.

65
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,040
So the idea of like an AI writing a speech first,

66
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,720
it's a little scary.

67
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,160
Is it really that good though, these AI writers?

68
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,320
Well, I mean, they're getting better all the time.

69
00:01:59,320 --> 00:01:59,920
Yeah, that's true.

70
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:01,040
Technology is always changing.

71
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:02,640
But the important thing to remember

72
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,480
is that for now, it's more about augmentation, not

73
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:06,160
replacement.

74
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:07,320
So AI is like a tool.

75
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:08,040
Exactly.

76
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:08,760
Not a replacement.

77
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,480
Like a powerful tool that we can use to be more efficient.

78
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:12,400
OK, I like that.

79
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,000
Like think of it like a carpenter with a new power foe.

80
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:16,720
OK, yeah.

81
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,600
It makes their job e-ear, but it doesn't replace the carpenter.

82
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,320
Right, the carpenter still has to know what they're doing.

83
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:22,000
Exactly.

84
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,120
They just have a new tool to help them do it better.

85
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,760
So it's more about humans and AI working together.

86
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:27,400
Like a partnership.

87
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,600
Yeah.

88
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,640
But I do wonder about how this will

89
00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:32,400
affect different groups of workers.

90
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,360
Oh, yeah, for sure.

91
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,440
Humbo actually expresses concern about women

92
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,680
being disproportionately impacted.

93
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:39,600
Oh, that's interesting.

94
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:40,480
Why?

95
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,120
Well, he points out that a lot of women currently

96
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,680
have clerical jobs.

97
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:45,320
OK.

98
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,160
Like administrative work.

99
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,840
And those are the jobs that could be most easily automated.

100
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:50,360
Exactly.

101
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,600
If you think about a big company and all the admin tasks,

102
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,280
a lot of those could be done by AI.

103
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,920
And that could lead to job losses in those areas.

104
00:02:57,920 --> 00:02:58,240
Right.

105
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,320
And if women are predominantly holding those jobs,

106
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,400
then they would be the one that most affected.

107
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:03,240
It's a real concern.

108
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:03,640
Yeah.

109
00:03:03,640 --> 00:03:05,760
That raises a lot of quenches about how

110
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,720
we can ensure a fair transition as AI becomes more integrated.

111
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:10,240
Absolutely.

112
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:11,720
And this is where he talks about the ILO's

113
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:12,960
tripartite structure.

114
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:13,800
OK, what's that?

115
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,960
So they bring together governments, employers,

116
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,600
and trade unions to discuss these issues

117
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,840
and find solutions that work for everyone.

118
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,600
So it's like everyone has a C at the table.

119
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:22,840
It is.

120
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,120
It's like a three-legged stool.

121
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:25,720
You need all three legs to be strong.

122
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:26,280
I see.

123
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,680
So governments can set policies, employers

124
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,920
can invest in training.

125
00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:30,640
OK.

126
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:32,960
And unions can fight for workers' rights.

127
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,520
So it's not just about the technology.

128
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,120
It's about the social impact.

129
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:36,680
Exactly.

130
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,040
We have to develop new models of work, education,

131
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,160
and social safety nets.

132
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,160
So everyone benefits from this revolution.

133
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:44,400
Right.

134
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:45,760
Not just to select few.

135
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,560
I bet some people are listening and thinking,

136
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,360
well, if AI is such a threat, why haven't we

137
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,120
seen mass layoffs yet?

138
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,400
Yeah, that's a good point.

139
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,560
Like, where is the evidence of this happening?

140
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:56,920
Well, Hungbo acknowledges that.

141
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:57,240
OK.

142
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,320
He argues that the changes are already happening.

143
00:03:59,320 --> 00:03:59,880
OK.

144
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,120
But they're often subtle and gradual.

145
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,280
So it's not enmermatic as we might imagine.

146
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:04,560
Right.

147
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,240
He gives the example of international organizations

148
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:08,680
replacing interpreters.

149
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:09,400
With AI.

150
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,120
Yeah, with AI-powered tools.

151
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,280
So it's not mass layoffs, but it's a shift in demand.

152
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:15,160
It's like a slow burn.

153
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:16,160
It's a gradual process.

154
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:16,760
Exactly.

155
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,320
He describes it like a fast-moving train that's

156
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:20,440
picking up steam.

157
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,240
Ooh, I like that visual.

158
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:23,840
You might not see the full impact

159
00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:25,120
until it's right in front of you.

160
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,120
Wow.

161
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,200
So just because we don't see those big headlines

162
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:29,440
about job losses.

163
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:30,400
That doesn't mean it's not happening.

164
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:31,000
Exactly.

165
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,320
It might just be less obvious.

166
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:32,800
Yeah.

167
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:33,600
It's a little happening.

168
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,440
And that makes it even more important to be proactive.

169
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,000
Absolutely.

170
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,440
We can't just wait and react.

171
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,600
We need to prepare for these changes.

172
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:41,280
Exactly.

173
00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:42,320
And that's what we're going to talk about next.

174
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:42,640
OK.

175
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:43,040
I'm ready.

176
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,480
So it feels like we're at this crossroads.

177
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:45,960
You know?

178
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,920
Like, we've got this amazed to technology AI.

179
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,800
But there's all this anxiety about what

180
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,680
it means for jobs, for society.

181
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,680
Like a real tension, right?

182
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,040
And I think Honbo, he gets that.

183
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,200
He acknowledges it.

184
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,720
He's not like, oh, Ro-Ra, AI is going to fix everything.

185
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,840
But he's also not like doom and gloom.

186
00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:05,000
Yeah.

187
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:06,240
He's looking for that balance.

188
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:06,880
Exactly.

189
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:07,120
Yeah.

190
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,440
He's saying, embrace the innovation.

191
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,000
But be aware of the risks.

192
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:11,440
Right.

193
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,120
Exactly.

194
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,320
And there's this really interesting thing he brings up

195
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,520
about AI, maybe not just increasing productivity,

196
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,240
but actually reducing working hours.

197
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:20,560
Oh, wow.

198
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,800
While keeping salaries the same.

199
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:23,000
Yeah.

200
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,760
That's a different perspective.

201
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:24,960
Yeah.

202
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,560
It's like, whoa, what does AI actually gave us more free time?

203
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,720
Instead of just making us work harder and faster.

204
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:31,440
Exactly.

205
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,000
Like, it challenges the whole idea of work-life balance.

206
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:34,640
It does.

207
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:35,320
It really does.

208
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,480
Like, what if work was just one part of a fulfilling life,

209
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:39,920
not the whole thing?

210
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,200
It's like, AI could give us the tools to rethink everything.

211
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:43,760
Yeah.

212
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,280
But I'm sure some people will be like, no way.

213
00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:46,120
That'll ruin the economy.

214
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:46,640
I'll be different.

215
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,600
Like, less work equals less productivity.

216
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:49,720
That's the traditional thinking.

217
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:50,160
Right.

218
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:50,520
Right.

219
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,120
But Hongbo is saying, let's at least have the conversation.

220
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:54,560
We can challenge those assumptions.

221
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:54,840
Yeah.

222
00:05:54,840 --> 00:05:56,400
Like, what do we actually value?

223
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,000
Is it just about working all the time?

224
00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:58,720
That's a good question.

225
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,120
Or is it about, like, living a good life?

226
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:01,440
Right.

227
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,240
And maybe AI can help us achieve that.

228
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,520
And I think a lot of people are worried that, you know,

229
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,640
AI is just going to make inequality worse.

230
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:08,360
Oh, absolutely.

231
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:09,320
That's a huge concern.

232
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,280
Like, the rich get richer, the poor get poorer.

233
00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:11,480
Yeah.

234
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,520
And Hongbo talks about the digital divide.

235
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:14,040
The what?

236
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:14,960
The digital divide.

237
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,480
So, like, not everyone has equal access to technology and data.

238
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:20,120
Ah.

239
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:20,400
OK.

240
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,680
So if AI is built on data from wealthy countries,

241
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,280
then it's likely that those countries will benefit the most.

242
00:06:26,280 --> 00:06:27,680
And everyone else gets left behind.

243
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:28,520
It's a real danger.

244
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:29,000
Yeah.

245
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,480
So it's not just the tech itself.

246
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,160
It's who has access to it.

247
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,320
That's a crucial point.

248
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:33,840
Absolutely.

249
00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:35,280
Well, it's not all bad news, right?

250
00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:35,600
No.

251
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:35,880
No.

252
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:36,400
Not at all.

253
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,240
Hongbo does highlight some positive examples.

254
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:39,520
Oh, good.

255
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:40,080
Like what?

256
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,960
He talks about this partnership in France

257
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,120
between Mistral AI and the employment agency.

258
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:46,600
OK.

259
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,640
And they're using chat bots to help people find jobs.

260
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:50,080
Interesting.

261
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:50,920
How does that work?

262
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,040
So imagine you're looking for a job.

263
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:53,200
Yeah.

264
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,440
And you don't have time to look through all the job boards.

265
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:56,720
It can be so overwhelming.

266
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:56,920
Yeah.

267
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,800
So this chat bot talks to you, figures out your skills.

268
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:00,320
OK.

269
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,480
And then matches you with potential jobs.

270
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:03,680
Oh, that's actually really cool.

271
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:03,920
Yeah.

272
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,440
It could be a really helpful tool.

273
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,400
Especially if it's accessible to everyone.

274
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:08,320
Exactly.

275
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:09,120
That's the key.

276
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,560
Like, it has to be designed in a way that's fair and equitable.

277
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,880
So it's not about the AI being good or bad.

278
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,160
It's about how we use it.

279
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,360
It's a tool.

280
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,280
And we have to use it responsibly.

281
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:19,480
Right.

282
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,120
We have to think about the consequences.

283
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,000
And that brings us back to those conversations

284
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,720
between governments, employers, and unions.

285
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:25,960
Right.

286
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,320
That tripartite structure that Humbo emphasized.

287
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:28,520
Yeah.

288
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,200
Like, everyone needs to be involved.

289
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,120
To ensure that AI benefits everyone.

290
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,480
He said that companies are, like, generally open to these ideas.

291
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:36,040
OK.

292
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:36,440
That's good.

293
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,880
But actually putting them into action, that's the hard part.

294
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:39,200
Yeah.

295
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:40,560
It's always easier said than done.

296
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,240
And I think education has a big role to play here.

297
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:44,040
Oh, absolutely.

298
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:44,800
On multiple levels.

299
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:45,000
Yeah.

300
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,520
Like, preparing young people for these new jobs.

301
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:48,320
That's essential.

302
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,280
But it's also about educating everyone.

303
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,000
But AI.

304
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:51,320
Yeah.

305
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,440
Like, regardless of your age or job.

306
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,240
So we can all understand what's happening.

307
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,480
And participate in shaping the future of AI.

308
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,160
It's like we need a new kind of literacy.

309
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:00,080
AI literacy.

310
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:00,560
I love that.

311
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:01,520
AI literacy, yes.

312
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,520
So we can be informed, engaged citizens.

313
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,400
And advocates for responsible development.

314
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,240
And we can start by asking questions, right?

315
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:08,760
Absolutely.

316
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,520
Like, what are the potential biases in AI?

317
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,840
How do we make sure it benefits everyone?

318
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,120
Those are the important questions.

319
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:15,520
Yeah.

320
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:16,920
And they're not easy to answer.

321
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,800
No. But we have to grapple with them.

322
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,880
If we want AI to make the world a better place.

323
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:21,400
Exactly.

324
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:22,280
That's the goal.

325
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,200
And that brings us to another big question.

326
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:24,720
What's that?

327
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,200
What about the impact of AI on education itself?

328
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:28,640
Oh, yeah.

329
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,760
Like, are robots going to replace teachers?

330
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,080
Will our kids be learning from algorithms?

331
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:34,640
That's a scary thought for some people.

332
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:34,880
Yeah.

333
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,600
And Hanungo, he doesn't think human teachers are going away

334
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:38,400
anytime soon.

335
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:38,760
OK.

336
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:39,680
That's good to hear.

337
00:08:39,680 --> 00:08:42,760
But he does think AI will transform education.

338
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,240
So how will it change?

339
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,280
Well, imagine personalized learning.

340
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:47,760
Oh, wow.

341
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,080
Where AI tailors the content to each student.

342
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,720
Like a personal tutor for everyone?

343
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:53,200
Yeah.

344
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,960
And it could make education more accessible.

345
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,960
To people who maybe can't go to traditional schools?

346
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:57,600
Exactly.

347
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,960
Like in remote areas or conflict zones.

348
00:08:59,960 --> 00:09:00,880
That would be amazing.

349
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,680
But there are downsides too, right?

350
00:09:02,680 --> 00:09:04,360
Of course we can't forget that them an element.

351
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,760
Like, teachers do so much more than just deliver information.

352
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,760
They nurture critical thinking, empathy,

353
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,040
all those important things.

354
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:12,360
That AI can't replicate.

355
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:13,240
At least not yet.

356
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,400
So it's about finding that balance again.

357
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:15,680
Right.

358
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:17,800
Technology and humanity working together.

359
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,520
And that's a theme that keeps coming up, right?

360
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:20,120
It does, yeah.

361
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,440
Like with AI and jobs, AI and education.

362
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,080
It's about finding the right way

363
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,000
to integrate these technologies into our lives.

364
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,920
And Hanungo's final point is really important.

365
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:29,400
What's that?

366
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,280
He says AI isn't inherently good or bad.

367
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:32,960
It's a tool.

368
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:33,800
Exactly.

369
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,120
And it's up to us to decide how we use it.

370
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,480
To shape the future we want.

371
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,160
So deep divers, we've covered a lot today.

372
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:40,520
We have.

373
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:41,400
It's been a wild ride.

374
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,200
From the threats to the opportunities of AI.

375
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,560
The ethical dilemmas, the philosophical questions.

376
00:09:46,560 --> 00:09:47,800
And one thing is clear.

377
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:49,160
AI is here to stay.

378
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:50,440
It's not science fiction anymore.

379
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,200
It's already impacting our lives.

380
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,800
And it's only going to become more powerful.

381
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,840
So the question is, what are we going to do about it?

382
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,000
How are we going to navigate this new world?

383
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,920
Yeah, it does feel like we're standing on the edge

384
00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:01,440
of this massive change.

385
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,000
Right, like this huge shift.

386
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,360
And it's both exciting and kind of scary.

387
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:06,160
Yeah, I get that.

388
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,400
So how do we even begin to navigate this,

389
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,320
this new world with AI everywhere?

390
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:12,760
Well, I think what Humbo is saying

391
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,800
is that we have more power than we think.

392
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,800
It's not like this predetermined future.

393
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,040
We actually get to make choices that shape it.

394
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,000
So we're not just like, along for the ride.

395
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,600
Nope, we're not passive passengers.

396
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,120
We can actually steer the direction of it.

397
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:26,840
Yeah, exactly.

398
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,600
We can grab the wheel, so to speak.

399
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:29,600
How do we do that?

400
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,080
Like, how do we take control?

401
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,920
Well, it starts with being informed.

402
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,680
Like, actually understanding how AI works, what it can

403
00:10:36,680 --> 00:10:37,560
and can't do.

404
00:10:37,560 --> 00:10:39,400
So like, doing our own research.

405
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,520
Yeah, and not being afraid to ask questions.

406
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,520
To be critical, to think for ourselves.

407
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,080
Exactly, because there's so much hype around AI.

408
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,000
Yeah, it's hard to know what to believe sometimes.

409
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,680
Right, so we need to develop that critical thinking.

410
00:10:50,680 --> 00:10:52,400
Like, what did you call it before?

411
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:53,240
AI literacy?

412
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,440
Yeah, AI literacy.

413
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,680
We need to be able to spot the BS.

414
00:10:56,680 --> 00:11:00,560
Exactly, to separate the reel from the exaggerated claims.

415
00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:04,120
OK, so Deep Divers, we've been on this journey today with AI.

416
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:05,320
We have, we've gone deep.

417
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:09,440
Explored the potential job losses, the new opportunities.

418
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,000
Talk about the ethical challenges,

419
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,600
the philosophical questions.

420
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,480
And I think we can all agree, AI is here to stay.

421
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:16,400
It's not going anywhere.

422
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,280
It's already changing the world as we know it.

423
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:19,760
And it's likely going to get more powerful.

424
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,520
So what does this mean for you listening right now?

425
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,720
What can you do to get ready for this AI-powered future?

426
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,360
Yeah, like, practical steps.

427
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:28,920
Well, first of all, stay curious.

428
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:29,420
OK.

429
00:11:29,420 --> 00:11:32,560
Keep learning, read articles, listen to podcasts like this one.

430
00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:33,280
Chainless plug.

431
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:34,560
Maybe take some online courses.

432
00:11:34,560 --> 00:11:36,640
Yeah, there's so much information out there.

433
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,080
And don't be afraid to talk about it.

434
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:39,160
Have conversations.

435
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,080
Yeah, with your friends, family, colleagues.

436
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,480
Like, what do you think about all this?

437
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,520
Exactly, because the more we talk about it,

438
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:45,720
the more prepared we'll be.

439
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,120
And the better choices we can make.

440
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,520
So it's about taking action, not just sitting back

441
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:50,480
and letting it happen.

442
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:51,320
Right, we have agency.

443
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:52,520
We can shape this future.

444
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,080
And ultimately, it's about using AI for good.

445
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,800
To make the world a better place.

446
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,440
And on that note, Deep Divers, we've

447
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,080
reached the end of our Deep Dive.

448
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,880
It's been a pleasure diving deep with you.

449
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:03,920
We hope you've learned something new today.

450
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,320
And that you feel inspired to take action.

451
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:07,320
Thanks for joining us.

452
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:08,000
Until next time.

453
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Bye.
