Living and Working with AI: Thomas Anglero

Thomas Anglero brings a fascinating perspective on artificial intelligence, technology, and the human side of work.  He has spent his career at the forefront of technology, from founding the IBM Watson AI Lab for Cancer in Oslo to serving as Chief Technology Officer for Cognizant across the Nordics. He has also spoken about AI to boardrooms, governments, and audiences across 30 countries.
But what makes his perspective particularly interesting is that he hasn't just talked about the future of AI, he has built a business around it, working alongside his own AI council and making real-world decisions about how technology can shape the workplace.  In this episode, we explore AI, the future of work, and perhaps most importantly, where people fit into a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence.
