Listen in to hear Pentland’s vision for something he calls “HumanAI”; along the way, he explains why org charts are useless, why where you buy your morning coffee matters, and most importantly, how we can all reclaim a bit of our precious digital privacy. Future Human is a presentation of Nokia Bell Labs, produced by Audiation.fm.
