What’s holding AI back, why isn’t AI a massive game changer yet?\n\nOn this episode of Disruptors, host John Stackhouse sits down with technology expert Ajay Agrawal to dig into that very question. Ajay is a professor at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management; a founder of the Creative Destruction Lab, an early proponent of AI ingenuity; and author of Power and Prediction: The Disruptive Economics of Artificial Intelligence, which looks at the economics of the systems in which the technology operates. \n\nThis episode also features an exciting new AI technology called GPT-3, which uses deep learning to produce text that reads like it was written by a human. It even provided a brief summary of John and Ajay’s conversation: \n“AI has the potential to help reduce discrimination by making it easier to detect and then fix. However, too much regulation of AI has the potential to stifle innovation. Canada is doing well on the research side of AI, but there is room for improvement on the application side.”\nAmazingly concise! This episode also features an AI-generated John Stackhouse, so listen in and see if you can hear the difference."}
