Why AI pioneers disagree on the future of AI | Adopt AI Talks

Description

AI looks different from every founder's desk

"What I find interesting is asking them each time what they have in mind, how they see the world in 10 or 20 years."

Recorded live at Adopt AI - Grand Palais 2025, this Adopt AI Talks episode features Guillaume Grallet, high-tech reporter and author of Pionniers (Grasset), in a conversation led by Damien Gromier, Founder & CEO of Adopt AI. Together they look at what AI pioneers have in mind, from Sam Altman and Demis Hassabis to researchers in Dakar and Kigali. They also ask what those visions mean for work, education and adoption.

Why does the debate on AI so often sound like one story, when the people building it disagree on almost everything, from model size to what our children should learn?

A Nobel Prize in Chemistry for AlphaFold, a 0.4-billion-parameter model for African languages that runs on a laptop, a founder waiting for brain implants before having children and a school without foreign language classes. Listen to discover why taking hold of AI is the best way to tame it.
