Common Good AI co-founder Kim Polese spoke with Brett Hurt about how AI can bring people together to find common ground and develop shared solutions.
Key topics highlighted in this discussion include:
How generative collective intelligence could combine human reasoning and AI to solve problems at massive scale
Why today’s AI excels at learning from data but falls short on judgment, collaboration, and foresight
How human wisdom, creativity, and agency can remain central as AI becomes more powerful
How technology could optimize for common ground and constructive disagreement instead of attention, outrage, and polarization
Why AI could help reinvent democracy, diplomacy, and collective decision-making
Why Kim sees intelligence as distributed across people and nature, and spiritual awakening as recognizing our interconnectedness
