I've Got Questions with Sinead Bovell - Welcome To I’ve Got Questions with Sinead Bovell

Episode Date: September 23, 2025

I've Got Questions is your front-row seat to understanding how AI and emerging technologies are reshaping our world and your life. Hosted by futurist Sinead Bovell, the show cuts through the noise to explore what’s happening beneath the surface of today’s biggest tech shifts, and what they signal about tomorrow. Each week, Sinead sits down with the people building the tools, setting the policies, and shaping the ideas that will define the next chapter of human life. These are conversations designed to help you understand what’s changing, anticipate where things are heading, and steer toward the futures you want to live in.

Every day, there's a new headline about artificial intelligence and emerging technologies, and it can feel like a whirlwind to try to keep up with. But at the same time, the more we understand these technologies, the better equipped we are to insert ourselves in the conversations about them and to steer how they're being built and deployed. That's why I'm launching my new podcast. I've got questions with Cheney Beauvel. I'm going to introduce you to the people building the technologies that are shaping our future,

the policymakers trying to regulate them, the deep thinkers helping us to make sense of this moment that we're in, Everyone in between. What goes through your mind when you're sitting across from a world leader, telling them that you are building systems that will one day surpass human intelligence? The truth that we all have to face is none of us have a clue. We need AIs that are aligned to us as a species. They make us smarter and more productive.

People's job will be to direct the AIs by applying their judgment. Social media may be one of the biggest casualties of AI. There is no future of education. There is knowledge in the future. I want you to be able to wake up and know exactly what you have to do tomorrow as a result of what you're learning about. If we're racing towards a climate disaster, if we're racing towards a real collapse in the labor market, we might want to be asking harder questions about how we build and use these technologies. And get your questions ready because we're going to be answering them directly on the show.

You can follow the show now on YouTube or wherever you get your podcast, and I'll see you at the first episode, September 25th. So do you think AI is a continuation of existing power structures, empires or it's the making of a new one.
