In a recent episode of the AI Wisdom Pod, Charles, the CEO of Podpire, invited Nikolaj Van Omme, a tech enthusiast from Montreal, to discuss the future and potential of AI.

Nikolaj, originally from Belgium, has a rich background in AI and has been deeply involved in its evolution. During the discussion, Nikolaj emphasized the importance of a prescriptive approach to AI, combining machine learning with operations research. He highlighted the efficiency of this combination in solving complex problems. Nikolaj's company has successfully collaborated with major corporations like Toyota's Asyn Group, providing solutions that reduced costs by up to 30%.

The conversation also touched upon the potential dangers of AI, the shift of OpenAI from non-profit to for-profit, and the broader implications of AI in society.
