YouTube Description
as posted by the channelBill Maher sits down with Black Eyed Peas frontman and tech innovator will.i.am for a wildly unpredictable conversation about AI, creativity, and the future of humanity. From teaching AI and “agentic systems” at ASU to debating hallucinating chatbots and whether aliens are already here, will.i.am challenges Bill’s fears about technology while admitting the next decade could get chaotic if humans don’t become more humane. The two also get into cancel culture, why the Black Eyed Peas pulled “Let’s Get Retarded” from streaming platforms, China vs. America, and generational anxiety. Will also opens up about the panic attack that changed his life after smoking weed in 1993 and why education, not outrage, is the real solution to inequality.

ABOUT BILL MAHER
Bill Maher was the host of “Politically Incorrect” (Comedy Central, ABC) from 1993-2002, and for the last 23 years on HBO’s “Real Time,” Maher’s combination of unflinching honesty and big laughs have garnered him 41 Emmy nominations. Maher won his first Emmy in 2014 as executive producer for the HBO series, “VICE.” In October of 2008, this same combination was on display in Maher’s uproarious and unprecedented swipe at organized religion, “Religulous.”
Maher has written six bestsellers: “True Story,” “Does Anybody Have a Problem with That? Politically Incorrect’s Greatest Hits,” “When You Ride Alone, You Ride with Bin Laden,” “New Rules: Polite Musings from a Timid Observer,” “The New New Rules: A Funny Look at How Everybody But Me Has Their Head Up Their Ass", and most recently "What This Comedian Said Will Shock You".
