EP23 Idealoading: "Human Machine Understanding - The Machine as team a mate!" Michelle Lim & Ali Shafti

🚨Super excited a new #idealoading #podcast with 2 brilliant people ❤️ Michelle Lim Ali Shafti on: "Human Machine Understanding - The Machine as team a mate!" Wouldn't it be great if machines could really understand us. The way we talk, think, react, work and interact. Wouldn't that be the perfect extension to us. A perfect collaboration between human and machine? That is exactly what Michelle and Ali are working on. Their field of research is on that fascinating cross road of Psychology & Technology, to build the world context for machines that human naturally have.

We have discussed so many things, but here are the main topics and things you will learn from listing to this podcast:
🤔 What if your washing machine could talk and understand you? 😁
🤼‍♀️ How Machines are moving from tools to teammates!
🤖 What is machine empathy?
🧠 How do we build trust with the machine?
💁What do you see as uniquely human and difficult to replicate into AI?
🤷Will we have small personalised / finetuned models to our habits/thoughts rather than general AI?
📲Jarvis in the pocket - what will this mean for collaboration?

Super excited, what an amazing conversation! Big thank you to my guest! And I hope that they will join us once more! Have fun.
