In a Huberman Lab podcast, Fei-Fei Li discusses the essence and future of AI.

While models like Sora generate realistic videos, Li argues that AI's statistical learning differs fundamentally from human cognitive generalization.

Li calls for societal participation in defining the future of technology.
