Mental Models in Architecture & Societal Views of Technology: A Conversation with Nimisha Asthagiri
In this podcast, Michael Stiefel spoke with Nimisha Asthagiri about the importance of system thinking, multi-agent systems, the consequences of society applying a technology into an area for which it was not designed, and whether we can ever have a healthy relationship with artificial intelligence.
