• January 2020
In this hilarious talk, recorded at TEDxEustis 2020, Joe Shaw asserts that the coming technological takeover by the robots isn’t as scary as television, movies, and sci-fi novels would suggest. Through research, debate, and careful study of his own children, Shaw argues that we can control the future of artificial intelligence while enjoying the benefits.
Joe Shaw is an Analytics Programmer, a playwright, a comic book author, a philosopher of religions and morality, and a professional speaker who, in 2016, outlasted more than 30,000 speakers worldwide to finish in the top 30 in the Toastmasters International World Championship of Public Speaking. In his day job, Joe builds predictive financial analytic systems for Fortune 500 companies. In the evenings, he plays silly games and reads books with his five kids. They make him do all the voices. He’s bad at it, but they laugh anyway. Joe speaks on communicating data in ways people will understand, fostering creativity and innovation in technical organizations, finding common ground between people of different faiths, and managing the intersection of artificial intelligence and morality. He’s also obsessed with baseball statistics. Don’t get him started on that. For real.
