If you think that AI is going to make your marketing job obsolete, think again. AI may just make your job (and many aspects of your existence) completely manageable and utterly exciting for the very first time. This is the view of Byron Reese, author of The Fourth Age: Smart Robots, Conscious Computers, and the Future of Humanity, which explores how AI, robotics, automation and more are combining to unlock unlimited opportunities and make the impossible possible. Our host Peggy Anne Salz catches up with Reese–the CEO and publisher of the technology research company GigaOm, the founder of several high-tech companies and the owner of several patents–to discuss the impact of AI and robotics on the future marketer. Reese brings the topic to life with inspiring examples and truthful scenarios, using human history and nature as a lens to frame how our age, the Fourth Age, can play out and potentially alter everything for the better.
