For Episode 2 of The Deep View: Conversations, we flew to Abu Dhabi to sit down with President Eric Xing of the Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence, the world’s first AI-only university. We talk about everything from his unconventional journey to MBZUAI, misconceptions about the technology, the reality of progress in the field and the idea that, like the printing press, AI might usher in a new age for humanity, the age of empowerment.
