Dr. Vivienne Ming offers a glimpse into her keynote address at Magnet Network Live. Dr. Ming is a theoretical neuroscientist, entrepreneur, and the co-founder of Socos Labs. Her AI inventions have launched a dozen companies and nonprofits focused on human potential in education, workforce, and health. Dr. Ming explains her idea that we need to challenge ourselves with AI, not simply using it to make life easier, but harder, by having it create “productive friction that makes us better.”
Highlights from our conversation include:
1. Ming says we need to use AI “as our Socrates” to ask us the questions we’ve been “hiding from ourselves.”She asks us to consider what humanity is uniquely good at that AI isn’t.2. Ming says a great life “goes deep,” is engaged, and is willing to be wrong in order to learn and find something new.
