Episode notes

Chat GPT is designed to make you think that there is a deeper intelligence behind it by producing text. To a human, we really use language use as a sign of intelligence. And in some ways that dog is actually smarter because your dog can understand a couple words I use and so on. There's a kind of flexibility that your dog has that these machines don't.

Whether we like it or not, artificial intelligence is increasingly empowered to take control of various aspects of our lives. While some tech companies advocate for self-regulation regarding long-term risks, they conveniently overlook critical current concerns like the rampant spread of misinformation, biases in A.I. algorithms, and even A.I.-driven scams. In this episode, Adam is joined by cognitive scientist and esteemed A.I. expert Gary Marcus to enumerate the short and long-term risks posed by artificial intelligence.
