## Transcript

I think that the Ice Caves transform Society in many ways, but I would say Health Care is probably wasn't the most important but we need to include everybody say that we can engage the global South as well as the guy who knows that the management is very divided. You don't actually thinking the society's going to transform what we understand up as a I really significantly over the next few years. I think we have so much to do in terms of learning what AI is and can be and what it's also not and moving more towards this idea of collective intelligence and hybrid intelligences as I think the way forward is going to MP5 human intelligence.

And if you're trying to think about like previous events where people certainly got smarter one of them was the invention of the printing press so perhaps the generalization of AI is going to have the same effect on the humidity of the invention of the printing press I think is happening, but we often think about it as impacting the developed World advanced economies in Europe China the US and in reality a tremendously the developing world and this is something we are quite excited about amazing opportunities in education in healthcare for the whole world. Not just the advanced economies. Build AI tools to create radical new improvements and how we tackle the issues around the world and we make sure that the advancement of the I reach everyone democratically right balance is important example of what 30 or so since it was created and even today have the world has no access to the internet right hasn't even touched like, you know, half the world like over three billion people who was in 30 years download music for you and me but they're still so many people who don't have access to it, but then giving them access but still protecting people that violence is an important.

I think the main thing is however, we think about expertise and not just the office and everything. We will be challenged and push to be more and I think that's very intimidating for a lot of people, but I'm here to really celebrate. That when you Embrace him and when you improve literacy, there is actually a whole new world of expertise out there and anyone from a working-class background from a different place can now have access to intelligence and that potential is huge and we should not avoid it should be embraced and I'm excited by that potential.
