How do we leverage AI and intelligent tools to make better decisions? How can we utilize intelligent technology to upskill our workforce and increase AI fluency? In our latest AI Ignition episode, Cynthia Breazeal, associate director of the MIT Media Lab and dean for digital learning at MIT Open Learning, shares the implications of social robotics in business and applying AI at scale.

We’re understanding a lot about what it takes to build technologies that can really deeply and meaningfully engage people of all ages to help them achieve deeply important goals in their lives.

Cynthia Breazeal is the professor of media arts and sciences at MIT Media Lab where she founded and directs the Personal Robots group.
