Happiness is a choice. But it’s not always an easy choice to make. Mo Gawdat had to face an impossible choice. Before he was a bestselling author and podcast host, Mo worked a lucrative career as Chief Business Officer at Google X. He reached the heights of business influence and amassed a fortune by 29. And yet, he was miserable. It was only after the tragic death of his 21-year-old son Ali that Mo was forced to confront the truth. Mo now dedicates his life, work, and research to figuring out how human beings can be happier, and he’s on a mission to make 1 billion people happy. He sat down with me to share what he’s learned – that happiness is both a choice and our default setting, how to trick our brains out of survival mode, and why the happiest emotions we feel are rooted in the present, not the past or future. This…is A Bit of Optimism. To learn more about Mo and his work, check out: http://mogawdat.com/ @MoGawdatOfficial --------------------------- This episode is brought to you by True Classic!

Is happiness a choice? And if so, can it be engineered? Mo Gawdat, former Chief Business Officer of Google X and founder of One Billion Happy, believes this is true.  In fact, he's used his three decades of success in the tech industry to engineer his very own "happiness algorithm" to help all of us achieve this mind frame. Gawdat began his mission to conquer happiness after experiencing the ultimate tragedy.  In 2014, Mo suddenly lost his beloved son, Ali, which thrust him into depression and an existential reckoning with life's fragility. Rather than succumbing to this ultimate despair, Gawdat turned his grief into a catalyst for transformation. He soon embarked on a profound journey of self-discovery and healing, driven by a newfound mission to spread happiness and well-being to the world. Drawing from his personal experience and extensive research, Mo has authored the international bestseller "Solve for Happy: Engineer Your Path to Joy” and continues to champion his message of happiness to millions worldwide. Via his writing, speaking engagements, and podcast, Gawdat offers practical tools and strategies for finding joy in the face of adversity.Mo's commitment to spreading happiness has touched millions of lives.  He continues to inspire people from all walks of life to embrace happiness as a fundamental choice, as well as empower them to engineer their own paths to fulfillment. Tony and Sage Robbins are excited to share this special presentation from a 2022 private event with their Platinum Partners in Mexico.

Mo Gawdat, the former Chief Business Officer for Google X, bestselling author, the founder of ‘One Billion Happy’ foundation, and co-founder of ‘Unstressable,’ joins Scott to discuss the state of AI — where it stands today, how it’s evolving, and what that means for our future.

Follow Mo, @mo_gawdat. 00:00 Introduction 02:16 How have recent developments shaped your predictions about the future of AI? 05:32 When you mentioned unelected officials reshaping society, who are you referring to? 08:24 How do you balance concerns over algorithmic control with the risk of more malicious entities gaining an advantage? 13:34 Is it realistic to strike an AI treaty with China to move towards mutual trust? 17:40 Do you think sequestering China from our most advanced chip technology was a mistake? 21:06 Is the U.S. advantage shrinking from decades to days, signaling a need for cooperation? 27:37 Could a U.S.-China-led organization ensure transparency and security in AI and critical tech? 33:23 Shouldn't billionaires focus on improving life here instead of preparing escape plans? 37:38 Has the wealth gap fueled incentives to widen, not fix, the divide? 40:25 Is it optimistic to believe AI will benefit society, not just a few? 45:00 Why are we so addicted to stress? 48:13 How can we manage stress in a more sustainable way? #scottgalloway #futureai #algorithms #artificialintelligence #stress #aitechnology #trust #uschina #profg

AI is evolving faster than we ever imagined. While some see it as a threat, I see an opportunity. In this conversation, I explore how AI can create a world of abundance, but also why it is our responsibility to guide its development for the benefit of all. - Can AI solve humanity’s biggest challenges? - Why do ethics and human values play a crucial role in shaping AI? - Will we find happiness in a world where machines take over many tasks? We are already witnessing how AI is reshaping our world—but the key question is how we will use it. This is not just a technological revolution; it’s a test of our humanity.
