Today’s episode reviews a recent interview with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella about the company's plans for AI, the controversial state of artificial general intelligence (AGI), and how the tech giant is going to use quantum computing and AI to change the world.

Hosts Daphne and Fred share their spirited analysis of this fresh interview with Microsoft's Nadella, including an examination of the potential dangers of AI adaptation, including training bias and adherence to core human values. They explain what technical writers and documentation specialists can do today to prepare for a world in which the optimal skillset is shifting.

"It will not be AI that takes away the job of a technical writer, but rather another technical writer with keep AI skills," said Robbins after hearing the interview.
