What does AI mean for the future of work and society? In this conversation, Mustafa Suleyman and Ian Bremmer discuss how artificial intelligence is reshaping our world and populating it with myriad “digital people.”

Mustafa Suleyman, co-founder of DeepMind and Inflection AI, joins political scientist Ian Bremmer to discuss the extraordinary pace of AI development, its economic and social implications, and how humanity should adapt. Looking beyond the (maybe obsolete) Turing Test to the creation of emotionally intelligent AI assistants, this video explores the promises and perils of our AI-driven future.

Highlights include:
- Why AI's recent breakthroughs feel like a technological tipping point
- “Digital people” and how they’ll change our daily lives
- How AI could disrupt jobs, and what skills will stay valuable
- Corporate ethics and the risks of open-source AI
- Whether AI could eventually eliminate the need for most work
- A hopeful vision for creativity and community in a ubiquitous-AI society
