Takeaways from this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Turns out work that’s traditionally done by women – like caregiving and education – is a lot harder to automate than, say, being a lawyer or a doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Implication I’m taking from that: the future of employment may include (unless we take steps to structure it otherwise) women being most of the workforce, and furthermore, being forced to work by economic pressure.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Women very much need to be a part of designing AI, or we won’t get AI that works for everyone. (Which makes it even more notable that all of these experts, and most of the audience, are men.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. A lot of current AI research is focussed on improving life – finding ways to prevent accidents or make specialist medical care available to more people, for example. The “scary” part is further in the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Intriguing idea: human working memory artificially enhanced so that we’re capable of working on more complex problems with our own intelligence.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n
