Thinking Sideways: Chess, AI, and Smarter Decisions with Jen Shahade

Today on the James Alteger show. I really think the only way to save money is to get big money in surprising chunks. Making more income is this positive thing that you should almost celebrate, and yet every time you make more, it means you have to save more. It's like you're denying yourself more. That couldn't be more true now with the rise of AI, not to get too doomer in the beginning of the interview, but I think more and more people are realizing that, yeah, they need to choose themselves, as you wisely put it many years ago, because you just can't trust that parts of your salary job are gonna be siphoned off to AI.

Something that really always impresses me. People who make changes later in life. and first do something new. And with all of the ills of AI, I think that is one beautiful thing about it, that it's not ageist in the way that our society often is. If you start conversing with AI about a new project or a new idea you have, it's not going to be like, oh, you're too old to do that.
