EP44 | The AI Tsunami & The Future of Everything | DJ Needlz

EP44 | The AI Tsunami & The Future of EverythingAdam sits down with Neil Whelan (DJ Needlz) — DJ, producer and former member of Adam’s hip-hop group The Elements.What starts as a catch-up between two old collaborators quickly turns into a wide conversation about how fast the world seems to be changing.The lads talk about travelling around Thailand, Cambodia and Laos back before smartphones and social media took over everything — when backpacking meant internet cafés, long bus journeys and figuring things out as you went.From there the conversation moves into bigger topics including media culture, politics, the rising cost of living, and the growing impact of AI and automation.They also get into how artificial intelligence could change jobs, music, creativity and entire industries, and whether we’re heading toward a technological “tsunami” that most people aren’t fully prepared for.A relaxed conversation that goes from travel stories and music to some big questions about where the world might be heading next.
