Among her many roles and accomplishments, Arianna Huffington is the founder and CEO of Thrive Global, a leading behavioral change technology company with a mission to redefine productivity through wellbeing.​ Thrive Global is building an AI-powered assistant that will gently nudge people to take small breaks, add a few steps to their day, cut down on processed foods and pursue other habits that are good for our body and soul. The advice dished out by this assistant will be personalized for each individual, and delivered right in the flow of work through apps like Microsoft Teams.​ In a conversation with Hayete, Arianna talks about why supporting people to enjoy happier, healthier and more productive lives is such a personal mission for her. With AI, she believes we now have a unique opportunity to help people focus on what it means to be human, and what matters the most to them.​ Follow “Pivotal with Hayete Gallot” anywhere you listen to podcasts: https://aka.ms/pivotal Chapters: 0:00 – Introduction 2:38 – Why people aren’t attentive to their health 3:46 – Making wellbeing part of a company’s culture 5:24 – Arianna on AI and wellbeing 7:58 – The opportunities for aligning AI with human values 9:45 – The GPS for your soul 11:11 – A copilot for life 14:23 – Helping the individual at work 16:22 – What is a “Reset” 17:44 – Arianna’s Reset 20:40 – Hayete’s Reset 25:25 – Wellbeing and responsible AI 27:51 – Making sure people feel secure 29:44 – An example of humanizing data 33:20 – Accessing the coach 34:28 – Looking ahead at AI 37:06 – Helping people help themselves Subscribe to Microsoft on YouTube here: https://aka.ms/SubscribeToYouTube Follow us on social: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/microsoft/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Microsoft Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Microsoft/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/microsoft/ For more about Microsoft, our technology, and our mission, visit https://aka.ms/microsoftstories
