As a Chief AI Officer and Strategic AI Expert, I've earned the nickname "AI Whisperer" for my intuitive ability to bridge the gap between artificial intelligence and real-world business applications. My fascination with cycles and patterns, which I explored deeply in my master's thesis on Kondratieff waves, led me to recognize AI's transformative potential long before it became mainstream. With over 25 years of experience blending business strategy, sales leadership, and technological innovation, I've helped countless organizations harness AI's power to revolutionize their operations. What truly sets my heart racing is seeing how AI innovations can unlock human potential.

Today's "machine-learning" systems, trained by data, are so effective that we've invited them to see and hear for us-and to make decisions on our behalf. But alarm bells are ringing. Recent years have seen an eruption of concern as the field of machine learning advances. When the systems we attempt to teach will not, in the end, do what we want or what we expect, ethical and potentially existential risks emerge. Researchers call this the alignment problem.
