The AI Revolution
Manage episode 471585301 series 3649858
The robots aren't coming - they're already here. And they're writing your emails, making your dinner plans, and possibly eyeing up your job.
Jack Austin and Adam Garcia dive into the AI revolution that's happening right under our noses, exploring both the mind-blowing possibilities and the frankly terrifying implications of machines that can think (almost) like us.
From the bloke in the call centre who might be out of work by Christmas to the surgeon who could be replaced by something that doesn't get hangovers, we're asking the big questions about where humanity fits in an increasingly automated world.
Plus, we ponder whether AI will ever truly understand what makes us human - or if that's even the point anymore.
🧠 What We're Nattering About:
00:00 - The AI revolution that's already transforming our daily lives
04:00 - How frighteningly good AI has become in just a couple of years
08:00 - When your job is officially on the chopping block (sorry, call centre workers)
13:00 - The time ChatGPT suggested using OnlyFans for a YouTube economics channel
17:00 - Why an AI doctor might diagnose you better than a human one with relationship troubles
20:00 - How AI could revolutionise mental health support (without clock-watching)
26:00 - The existential crisis of having no economic purpose in an AI world
34:00 - Whether AI will ever create genuinely moving art or just well-structured imitations
42:00 - The terrifying energy consumption of all these AI systems 48:00 - Some properly brilliant uses for AI (like wasting scammers' time for 40 minutes)
