Dave Edwards, Helen Edwards Nov 19, 2019

We returned to the House of Beautiful Business' annual gathering for the second time to provide a masterclass on AI and Intelligence.

💡

“Helen and Dave have a unique ability to describe what it means to be human in the age of AI. They prompt an audience to think beyond the technology and to consider how technology can be both humanizing and dehumanizing. They are masters in translating complex issues into compelling, relatable stories, and theirs was the first presentation about AI that reassured me that, yes, we can do this, a beautiful future is possible with AI.” —Tim Leberecht, Co-CEO, House of Beautiful Business
