Is generative AI the beginning of the end for humans ... or the end of the beginning?

And, did you know generative AI has been around since 1972?

In this TechFirst we chat with Ilke Demir, a research scientist at Intel who is working on ethical generative AI applications, like a speech synthesis project that aims to enable people who have lost their voice to talk again, an open urban driving simulator developed to support development, training, and validation of autonomous driving systems.

And a privacy-focused face generator that allows researchers to mix and match facial regions (nose of person A, mouth of person B, eyes of person C, etc.) to create an entirely new face that does not already exist in a dataset, so that people can request anonymization in public photos.

We also -- of course -- talk about OpenAI and Chat GPT, and how Ilke feels that it is not actually generative AI.
