Let’s strip away the hype and make AI understandable, useful, and human.
Google Research VP Maya Kulycky explains why the human brain remains unmatched (And why that’s good news!) and offers practical guidance for using AI as a collaborator, not a crutch. Google DeepMind COO Lila Ibrahim takes us inside different projects that expand what’s possible with AI in anthropology (Project Aeneas) and molecular biology (AlphaFold).
Responsibility runs through every story here as both Maya and Lila emphasize safety reviews, partnerships with domain experts, and community voices shaping how tools land in classrooms, labs, and homes. We also talk about supporting different learners, like how AI can patiently explore rabbit holes for one student and help another organize ideas and communicate with confidence.
By understanding what’s behind the AI curtain, (Statistics, not magic.) we learn how to set smart guardrails, design better prompts, and turn AI’s fluency into real learning and better decisions.
If you’re ready to replace AI mystery with mastery, press play on this episode!
