DESCRIPTION:Join us for a timely conversation on AI\, humanity\, and the 
 next steps towards building a better future with self-proclaimed “mad 
 scientist” Dr. Vivienne Ming as we discuss her new book\, Robot-Proof: 
 When Machines Have All the Answers\, Build Better People. \n\nIn 
 Robot-Proof\, Dr. Vivienne Ming helps readers grasp the ugly and the 
 amazing of how individuals\, companies\, and societies will respond to the 
 changes that are already taking hold due to the advent of AI. Robot-Proof 
 is a book about people\, exploring what it means to be human in an 
 increasingly automated world.\n\nThis book presents\, then answers\, 
 pressing questions that readers may or may not have thought to themselves\, 
 such as:\n\n\n	What predicts long-term life outcomes across millions of 
 little kids?\n	Why is the Informational-Exploration Paradox the most 
 terrifying phenomenon you’ve never heard of?\n	What predicts the smartest 
 team and how will AI change it?\n	Why are ill-posed problems the future 
 work\, education\, and a robot-proof humanity?\n\n\nWith poignant insight 
 and delicate care to keep us grounded in the human perspective\, 
 Robot-Proof is an entertaining and thought-provoking read for all 
 individuals seeking to understand the next steps in a new and completely 
 unprecedented world.\n\nRegister today to take part in the
