My guest today is Aaryn Flynn, a man who recognizes the importance of Artificial Intelligence and its potential to turn Edmonton into renowned global tech hub. Aaryn is a U of A grad who began his career as a game developer with the Edmonton-based gaming company, BioWare, producers of the hugely successful gaming franchises Dragon Age and Mass Effect.
