If you're interested in AI leadership, ethical artificial intelligence, parenting in the digital age, startup growth, or the future of AI technology, this episode delivers practical wisdom and bold vision:Today's interview on AI leadership features Rob LoCascio, Founder and former CEO of LivePerson, who shares why he walked away from leading a global AI company to launch mission-driven startups focused on ethical AI, child safety, taking people's power back and human creativity.
