He was the first to teach an MBA AI course at Harvard Business School. He also wrote a book called ‘AI is a Waste of Money’, and he is the founder and CEO of Aible, a company that focuses on delivering seamless generative AI experiences and autonomous intelligence that chats with you. Would he be an interesting guest to discuss data and AI? We thought so too. 

In this episode, our hosts Weiwei, Ron and Robert go in-depth with Arijit Sengupta on how AI is the first technology that is more flexible than humans, the dire need for specialized models and how to avoid expensive GPU compute cycles. They also explore the idea of whether seeking solutions from AI is always the appropriate approach. That and much more, along with some musings around punk rock, Wittgenstein’s philosophy, and the art of Haikus, make up for a podcast episode you don’t want to miss.
