Podcast appearances and mentions of John Havens

We're excited to welcome to the podcast John Havens, a multifaceted thinker at the intersection of technology, ethics, and sustainability. John's journey has taken him from professional acting to becoming a thought leader in AI ethics and human wellbeing. In his 2016 book, "Heartificial Intelligence: Embracing Our Humanity to Maximize Machines," John presents a thought-provoking examination of humanity's relationship with AI. He introduces the concept of "codifying our values" - our crucial need as a species to define and understand our own ethics before we entrust machines to make decisions for us. Through an interplay of fictional vignettes and real-world examples, the book illuminates the fundamental interplay between human values and machine intelligence, arguing that while AI can measure and improve wellbeing, it cannot automate it. John advocates for greater investment in understanding our own values and ethics to better navigate our relationship with increasingly sophisticated AI systems. In this conversation, we dive into the key ideas from "Heartificial Intelligence" and their profound implications for the future of both human and artificial intelligence. We explore questions like: What are the core components of human values that AI systems need to understand? How can we design AI systems to augment rather than replace human decision-making? Why has the field of AI ethics lagged behind technological development, and what role can positive psychology play in bridging this gap? Should we be concerned about AI systems usurping our ability to define our own values, or are there inherent limits to what machines can understand about human ethics? Let's dive into our conversation with John Havens. If you enjoy our podcasts, please subscribe and leave a positive rating or comment.

Today, digital privacy is on everyone's mind.  We know that every time we search, use an App, make an online purchase, or even go to the doctor, more and more information is being collected about us.  The degree to which we can do anything about it, or even care in this digital age, is an open question.  However, what if we ourselves could access and use this information?  Not to make us better consumers, but to actually make us happier.  If we understand our digital footprint, will it make us better able to understand ourselves, and would this have value?  Can all of this aggregated, quantified information create a kind of digital psychoanalysis, that we can use to improve our lives?  That's the premise of John Havens' book Hacking Happiness: Why Your Personal Data Counts and How Tracking it Can Change the WorldMy conversation with John Havens:
