Leaning into the Future with will.i.am
Manage episode 316670520 series 3000050
“I was stuck in my neighborhood. I was stuck with no opportunity. But creativity is the way out. The same brain that creates a song can come up with concepts and pitch them to companies – or build programs to help kids in the inner city.” These days it's easy to feel overwhelmed and stuck. Visionaries, like Van's guest will.i.am, show us a better path forward. In this episode, musician, philanthropist and futurist will.i.am discusses innovations the future may hold.
How can artificial intelligence guide us toward better ways of living? What do tech companies know about us that we don’t know about ourselves? And who is involved in the creation of the codes and algorithms that impact our lives? Most people aren’t asking these questions. But will.i.am is already thinking through the answers. Plus he shows how marginalized youth can use technology and participate fully in this fourth Industrial Revolution.
New episodes of Uncommon Ground with Van Jones release weekly, every Wednesday.
