Listen "Should we fear AI?"
Episode Synopsis
Artificial intelligence is a modern-day technology that will impact the way we live much as past innovations like mastering fire, and inventing the printing press, home computers and the internet changed civilisation. But what exactly is it, how does it work, and what are the opportunities and risks of its continued development? We talk to Chris Summerfield about Artificial Intelligence and his fabulous new book, “These Strange New Minds: How AI Learned to Talk and What It Means” recently published by Penguin.https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/460891/these-strange-new-minds-by-summerfield-christopher/9780241694657Our sponsor for this episode is Grace and Garbo!
