Dr. Myla Bui joins us to delve into the rapid advancements in AI technology and its sweeping impact across industries. We discuss Nvidia's meteoric rise, overtaking giants like Amazon and Tesla through heavy AI investment. Dr. Bui emphasizes the profound role of data in AI development and the perpetuation of human biases within these systems.

She explores the pivotal influence of government policies, such as the White House's commitment to ethical AI practices, and the ensuing ripple effects across research and industries. Younger generations' interaction with AI and its implications for identity and distraction in capitalist societies are also examined.

We highlight the dual role of AI in encapsulating emotional intelligence and its transformative potential in fields like marketing and consumer behavior.
