Artificial intelligence, artificial idiocy, or probability machine?Artificial Intelligence was born in 1956, went through some awkward teenage years (also known as “AI Winters”), and then — to almost everyone’s surprise — came roaring back with tools like ChatGPT. Today, AI is the fastest-growing industry in the history of capitalism and devours around 20% of the world’s R&D budget. That’s a lot of brainpower (artificial or otherwise).
Join Dr Karl as he connects the dots between the tech booms of yesterday — from the family car to the first home computers — and today’s mind-bending AI explosion. Along the way, he’ll share how AI has been used to both attack and discredit him, and how he’s now turning the tables to make it a Force for Good.
Expect real science stuff, genuinely funny (not artificially generated) stories, a few unexpected detours and — of course — question time with prizes.
