Microsoft senior researcher, Advait Sarkar, recently presented at @TEDAIVienna, where he spoke about AI’s role in elevating human thought. His talk explored how AI transforms knowledge work, creativity, and human thought – and how, if we design AI to make us think, and not think for us, we can greatly benefit as a society.

Meetings often drift off-track. Can AI help us reflect in the moment and realign?
Our #CHI2025 paper explores how AI-assisted interventions influence goal reflection during workplace meetings.
