Artwork for AI to the Rescue
AI to the Rescue is a podcast about people—people who see possibility where others see limits, and who use artificial intelligence not to replace humanity, but to empower it. Hosted by Nathan Chung, AI to the Rescue tells real stories from innovators, nonprofit leaders, technologists, and everyday changemakers using AI to address the world’s hardest problems: poverty, hunger, climate change, accessibility, and social inequality. These are not tales of futuristic machines—they’re human stories about compassion amplified through intelligent design. Each episode dives into a challenge that matters. One week, you might hear how machine learning is helping food banks predict demand and reduce waste. The next, how an AI-driven app helps connect farmers to fair markets, or how researchers are using data to combat disease outbreaks before they start. Some guests work in labs; others work in the field—but all are driven by a belief that technology can and should serve the greater good. The show bridges two worlds: the heart and the code. It’s where empathy meets innovation, where data meets dignity. Nathan brings his background in cybersecurity, governance, and advocacy to explore not just what’s possible, but what’s ethical, equitable, and sustainable. Conversations go beyond hype to unpack what responsible AI looks like—how it can empower communities instead of exploiting them, and how people from every background can take part in shaping a fairer future. AI to the Rescue isn’t a tech podcast for engineers—it’s a people podcast for anyone curious about how technology can make life better. The tone is accessible, hopeful, and deeply human. You don’t need to know code to follow the conversations; you just need curiosity about the world and the people changing it. Expect each episode to balance storytelling and insight. You’ll meet guests who inspire action—not through abstract theory, but through lived experience and tangible results. You’ll hear what worked, what didn’t, and what others can learn from their journey. Some stories will surprise you. Others will challenge what you thought AI could do. All of them will remind you that innovation is most powerful when it serves people first. If you’ve ever wondered whether AI can feed the hungry, heal the planet, or help build more inclusive communities, this is your place to find out. AI to the Rescue is about impact, integrity, and imagination. It’s about using technology not to escape the world’s problems, but to face them together—with compassion, creativity, and courage. Whether you’re a technologist, activist, student, or simply someone who wants to believe that progress can still have a heart, this podcast invites you to listen closely—to the voices shaping the future, and the values that guide them. Join Nathan and his guests as they explore the stories, systems, and sparks of hope at the intersection of humanity and AI. Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts, and discover how artificial intelligence is already rescuing what matters most: our shared humanity.
