Episode 267: A World of Authors and AI with Bo Bennett, PhD

Among the many fears surrounding the rampant innovation of AI remains a fact that cannot be denied – AI is here to make our lives easier. From conducting research to writing books and essays, AI can complete month-long tasks in mere minutes! 

We are joined today by Social Psychologist and prolific Author, Bo Bennett, PhD, who has founded a plethora of AI-powered websites that can all be found under one banner: Archieboy. Bo is a big believer in teaching people how to think, and this philosophy is evident in his seemingly endless string of website innovations.   

In our conversation, we learn about the inner workings of Bo’s websites Authorvoices.ai and BookBub – AI-powered platforms for authors – as well as his course-creation website, Virversity, and many others. You’ll also come to understand how Bo generates his ideas, why he isn’t worried about government regulation in AI, what AI could mean for the Dark Web, and Bo’s thoughts on how society is adopting AI and his vision for the future of this soon-to-be-staple technology.
