In Episode 2 we speak with Minter Dial about the future of AI and Ethics.

The Actionable Futurist™ Podcast answers the question “What’s the Future of … ?”

In each episode, we will provide a look at what’s new, what’s next and what you need to do next week to survive in this digital world, as told through the eyes of global experts.

You’ll find every episode full of practical ideas and answers to the question, “What’s the future of …?” with voices and opinions that need to be heard.

But beware, I’m no ordinary futurist, and along with my guests, we’ll give you things you can use in your business next week, not next year.
