Strategic advisor to Mid-Size and Enterprise Product and Technology Leaders. I’ve been working on actually relevant AI use cases since "transformers" still referred to a bad movie franchise (it still does, but it used to, too). Amsterdam.
I’m a fan of this quote from Shift, part of the Silo series by Hugh Howey:
> Donald was verging on the sad realization that humanity had been thrown to the brink of extinction by insane men in positions of power following one another, each thinking the others knew where they were going.
> Donald was verging on the sad realization that humanity had been thrown to the brink of extinction by insane men in positions of power following one another, each thinking the others knew where they were going.
