AI at the Table: Partner or Threat?
In this episode of Conversations with the Experts, host Dan Martin is joined by the endlessly curious and insightful Lauren Cantor, an AI specialist whose career path has taken her from the cosmos of astrophysics to the intensity of Wall Street, the world of fine arts, and now the fast-evolving frontier of AI consulting.

Lauren offers a refreshingly grounded and optimistic take on AI’s potential, challenging the doom-and-gloom narratives with a thoughtful perspective on how AI can enhance, not replace, human capability.
