Why AI Will Change How We Work and Think

About this episode

Paul explores the transformative impact of AI on business and software development.

What does the Turing Test have to do with the future of your business? In this episode, Paul explores AI not as hype or threat, but as the latest step in a long line of human invention — from the steam engine to the microchip. He breaks down how AI is set to dramatically cut the cost and timeline of software development, what that means for small business owners, and why the coming era may be one of genuine invention rather than just innovation. He also touches on why we should be careful not to anthropomorphise our AI tools.
