In this episode, we explore a thought-provoking paper that reframes artificial intelligence (AI) as a general-purpose technology, akin to electricity or the internet, rather than a mystical or terrifying force. We discuss the slow but impactful diffusion of AI into society, its business applications, societal and cultural impacts, and the necessary regulations and frameworks needed to guide its responsible use.
