This podcast puts artificial intelligence to the test across a range of work tasks. The series is hosted by futurist, author and Finlandia Prize nominee for non-fiction Perttu Pölönen, who leads listeners in exploring the capabilities and shortcomings of the latest AI applications. In each episode, Perttu and an expert guest assess how AI performs tasks from different fields. Guests range from lawyers to economists and from priests to doctors. 

What can algorithms do? What's left for humans? Ihminen vs. algoritmi ("Human vs. Algorithm") offers listeners a unique way to keep up with fast-moving technology and its impact on our lives. Join Perttu and company every week for a new episode to hear how AI is reshaping the future of work – and how we can shape it in turn.
