In the debate of AI vs. natural intelligence, which should you trust for a brighter future?
In this episode of “Conversations on Climate”, host Chris Caldwell sits down with the Regenerative Futurist Marc Buckley to discuss the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and the importance of building resilience and regeneration into our systems.
Marc shares his background and how he became interested in sustainability and regeneration. He also talks about the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals and the need to achieve them to create a better future for all.
Marc also touches on AI’s role in shaping the future and the importance of ensuring that it is used in a way that benefits all of humanity. Using examples of civilisations such as Mesopotamia, Incas, Mayas, Greeks, and Romans, Marc emphasises the importance of building resilience into our systems to ensure that we can withstand future challenges.
This is a thought-provoking conversation that raises important questions about the potential of AI and the need to create a more sustainable and regenerative future.
