In the last year AI has become the dominant topic of conversation in technology. There has been a lot of attention to how it changes the world of work, but the effects don’t stop there. I thought I would try a fun experiment disguised as a quiz to explore this.

Those of you who have attended my public speaking might think maybe I have taken the interactivity from scouting to heart a little too keenly.
