James Wells is VP of Corporate Development at Sanctuary AI, a company building & scaling embodied artificial general intelligence (AGI). In this episode, James and I discuss the differences between various types of artificial intelligence and opine on the future of the relationship between humans & intelligent machines. James is also an accomplished survivalist, yogi, ironman, & meditator In this episode, we cover James’s highly unique experiences * Completing a wilderness survival course in the middle of nowhere * Running an ironman race with almost no traditional training (as in running, biking, or swimming) * Learning and struggling through meditation practice and the impact it’s had on his personal & professional life This episode was kind of stitched together over a few recorded conversations we had, and the final product is exceptional. I think anyone could get something out of our chat. * You can find James Wells on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamesgwells/) (feel free to say hi) * You can visit Sanctuary AI at www.sanctuary.ai (http://www.sanctuary.ai)
