About this episode

Geoff Livingston interviews Lindsey Mastis, a former broadcast journalist who became one of the first to cover AI as a regular beat and now trains others on using AI while speaking on social good at conferences, including in Geneva and at the UN. 

 

Mastis shares a personal AI success story: using an LLM to plan a winter trip to Greec. She also shares using AI tools for self-coaching, translating her family history into Greek, and communicating via translation apps to connect with her ancestral “martyr village,” meet locals, and speak with a survivor who fled as a child during wartime fires. 

 

She recalls ChatGPT’s launch as a “now is gone” moment that reignited the excitement she once felt for augmented reality, contrasting it with newsroom resistance to new technology. Mastis is most optimistic about medical AI, citing at-home diagnostic tools and augmented-reality-assisted training that could reduce medical errors and unnecessary ER visits.
