An interesting podcast from Scott Galloway interviewing Mo, an expert on AI and its inevitable progress. That ChatGPT’s current IQ is about 155 versus Albert Enstein’s 160 and will be unmeasurable with future versions soon.

The bonus was the last 19 minutes where Mo shared his views on life, death and happiness. That was after he faced a personal family tragedy of the sudden death of his son and tried to come to terms with it. I had to listen to it twice to grasp his wise thoughts on moving forward and aiming to continue to live a happy life.

“Mo Gawdat, the former Chief Business Officer of Google [X] and an expert on happiness, joins Scott to discuss the need to control our response to AI, how this technology is impacting society, and the four major threats he’s identified. We also hear about Mo’s transition out of tech to focus on happiness. Follow Mo on Instagram, @mo_gawdat.

Scott opens with his thoughts on Threads and has a question for Mark Zuckerberg: are you Darth Vader, or are you Anakin?

Algebra of Happiness: express love and admiration as often as you can.”
