Planet Hope is a new podcast from The Times in partnership with Rolex and its Perpetual Planet Initiative. In this series, I'll be asking why our planet is changing so rapidly and will seek out the groundbreaking experts who are trying to fix it. This week we're talking about what else AI is - including how they make things up. We also meet Steven Shue, co-founder of Genomic Prediction which uses machine learning algorithms to determine potential health outcomes for embryos.
The Sunday Times' tech correspondent Danny Fortson brings on Stephen Hsu, founder of SuperFocus.ai, to talk about genetic testing of children (5:15), his new startup SuperFocus (9:15), the hallucination problem for artificial intelligence (11:40), how the Ai revolution could go very badly (17:55), creating an army of AI workers (24:00), how companies are reacting (27:30), starting a company amid the Cambrian explosion of AI companies (32:35), creating AI study buddies (37:00), the “who owns the data” question (43:15), and how education is the tip of the spear in the age of AI (48:45).
