About this listen

With opportunity comes uncertainty.

An industrial revolution has begun: artificial intelligence is creating a cultural upheaval.

But is this progress or peril? Is the potential really worth the risk?

In The Paradox of Progress, Dr. Michael M. Karch delves into the ethical complexities of AI’s rapid evolution. Drawing from a career spanning three decades in robotics, orthopedic surgery, and international disaster response, Dr. Karch investigates AI’s far-reaching impact and initiates critical discussion about its duality. This is a compelling exploration through historical precedents of progress and AI’s challenges today, including fears of data bias, deep fakes, technological hegemony, and job displacement. The Paradox of Progress is a thought-provoking analysis and must-listen perspective for discovering how to harness the power of AI, reflect on collective responsibility, and safeguard the future for ourselves and the next generation.
