My guest this week, Bobby Bahov, is a young entrepreneur and one of the most curious and inquisitive minds I have interviewed so far. He is the CEO and Co-founder of AI Lab One – a consulting business with a focus on helping companies embrace the future of artificial intelligence. He also co-founded Space Mining Technologies with the goal of getting a more permanent human presence in space. Our conversation starts with Bobby’s entrepreneurial journey and the lessons he learned along the way. We also talk about the vision behind his two start-ups and quickly branch off to talk about HealthTech, robotics, and the intelligence explosion. We talk about why we’re merging robots and why’s that a good thing. We talk about regulating tech and the issues that could arise in the future such as inherent human biases. I would list more of the topics, but we covered so much that you should just listen. I hope you’ll enjoy it!
