Imagine staying up all night, fueled by Mountain Dew and pizza, and building an AI-powered system that changes an entire industry—before you even graduate college. It sounds like a hacker’s fever dream, but for John K. Thompson, it was just the beginning.In this episode of Cool, Cool, Cool, host Cameron Kitt sits down with John K. Thompson, global AI leader at EY, author of (soon-to-be) five books, and a pioneer in analytics and AI.From a rebellious childhood in a small Michigan town to building some of the earliest AI-driven decision-making systems, John shares his journey through the rise of machine learning, big data, and now, causal AI—the next frontier in artificial intelligence.But what exactly is causal AI? How does it go beyond correlation to uncover why things happen? And could it help us solve massive challenges like drug discovery, policymaking, and even economic forecasting?Join us as we explore the past, present, and future of AI—from rebellious beginnings to groundbreaking innovations—and why John believes the next wave of AI, composite AI, will change everything.Instagram/Twitter: @CoolCoolCoolPodcastLinkedIn: @johnkthompson
