BEST OF: Can Ethical AI Democratize Therapy and Higher Quality Care?
Despre acest podcast
Bare Knuckles and Brass Tacks is the tech podcast about humans. Hosted by George K and George A, this podcast examines AI, infrastructure, technology adoption, and the broader implications of tech developments through both guest interviews and news commentary.
Our guests bring honest perspectives on what's working, what's broken, and new ways to examine the roles and impacts of technology in our lives.
We challenge conventional tech industry narratives and dig into real-world consequences over hype. Whether you're deeply technical or just trying to understand how technology shapes society, this show will make you think critically about where we're headed and who's getting left behind.
