Recently, we lost a basic income champion: Gerald Huff. Huff was a technologist, entrepreneur and, at the end of his life, author of Crisis 2038, a sci-fi novel that has basic income as a central plot element. Huff died of pancreatic cancer on November 17th. His daughter, Jane Huff, and basic income advocate Scott Santens joined the podcast to remember Gerald and discuss his novel and basic income advocacy. Crisis 2038 is available now as an ebook on Amazon, and the paperback version is available for preorder.

Remembering Gerald Huff, feat. Jane Huff and Scott Santens

The Getting Smart team has been focusing on (and writing a lot on their blog) about artificial intelligence (AI) and its implications on the future of work and learning. This week, they’re bringing you an episode published back in October of 2016 on what AI means for our kids; featuring Tom, Emily, and thought-leader, Gerald Huff.   This episode is dedicated to Gerald Huff, giving honor to both his life and his incredible body of work. Gerald passed away a few weeks ago on November 17th after a short battle with cancer.   Gerald was a software engineer by trade but was very invested in education. He was especially concerned about the growing income divide in the country and the prospect of technological unemployment. This inspired him to write a novel, Crisis: 2038, a techno-thriller with a moral imperative, which was just published posthumously and is available on Amazon.   Key Takeaways: [:15] About today’s episode. [1:23] Tom recaps his predictions on AI. [3:50] Tom’s predictions on what we’re doing now in education and learning that we may not be doing in the future. [5:30] Gerald Huff introduces himself on the podcast and gives his thoughts on the applications of AI in the transportation industry and where he sees the future of human labor headed. [12:09] Tom speaks about some of his findings on the future of AI and the connection to education. [16:30] Tom and Emily talk about the importance and implications of adding coding to schools. [17:53] The future of AI and its implications on higher education. [20:02] What AI means for career technical education (CTE). [23:40] Why should parents and teachers be talking about this? What should educators be following to learn more? [25:18] About Getting Smart’s #AskAboutAI campaign and the areas (within AI) they are exploring. [27:03] AI’s progress and potential risks in health and healthcare.
