Are you curious whether machines will replace humans in the near future?

In this podcast, I interview Dr. Alistair Johnson from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and a member of the Forbes 30 under 30 healthcare category. We discuss his story, covering topics such as life in high school at age 11, pursuing his doctorate at the University of Oxford, and how he got his Forbes 30 under 30 accolade. We then discuss key questions regarding the rise of artificial intelligence and machine learning, such as are humans going to be replaced by machines, what are the skills of the future, and whether the research integrity of the academic system has been compromised.
