[paradox bytes] No One Knows What AI Will Become - And That’s the Problem with Tomas de Souza

About this episode

Tomas de Souza discusses the unpredictability of AI and the lessons we can learn from the early days of the internet.

Everyone is talking about AI. Very few are willing to admit this: No one actually knows where it’s going. In this episode of Perception Paradox , Tomas De Souza breaks down the reality behind the AI hype — why we keep getting surprised, why the conversation is stuck between extremes, and what we can learn from the early days of the internet. Will AI replace everything? Or will we find a new balance — just like we did before? The real challenge isn’t predicting the future. It’s learning how to adapt while it’s unfolding.
