00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,160
Welcome to the Daily AI News Podcast.

2
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:04,120
Wow, you guys sent in so many articles for us

3
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:05,400
to take a look at today.

4
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:07,880
It looks like we'll be focusing on the latest developments

5
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,680
in AI from OpenAI's 12 Days of Reveals

6
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,440
to Google's big plans for search.

7
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:15,760
It is a lot to get through.

8
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,960
And you seem particularly interested in understanding,

9
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,980
not just like the individual announcements,

10
00:00:19,980 --> 00:00:22,720
but how they all connect to the bigger picture

11
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:24,520
of where AI is heading, you know?

12
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,440
Well, I'm gonna say this 12 Days of OpenAI thing.

13
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,080
Man, they're being very mysterious about it.

14
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:30,080
It's got me hooked.

15
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:31,480
It's almost like they're dropping hints

16
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,480
about a whole new era of AI,

17
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:35,400
but they're keeping the details very secret.

18
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,080
What do you think about this strategy?

19
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,840
It's definitely different from their usual

20
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:40,360
single product launches, right?

21
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,960
I mean, creating all this mystery,

22
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,160
it's generating a lot of buzz and anticipation.

23
00:00:45,160 --> 00:00:46,760
Maybe they're trying to position themselves

24
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,400
as more than just a model maker

25
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,560
and more like a driving force shaping the whole AI landscape.

26
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,280
Okay, so while we wait to see

27
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,000
what happens during these 12 Days,

28
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:56,840
let's look at some concrete news.

29
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,520
Let's start with OpenAI's new ChadGPT Pro subscription.

30
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,920
Right, bold move pricing it at $200 a month.

31
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,200
It seems like they're targeting a professional user base,

32
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:07,680
like researchers and engineer,

33
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,960
anyone who needs like top tier AI constantly.

34
00:01:10,960 --> 00:01:12,600
But is it worth it?

35
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,080
Does the value match that price tag?

36
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,680
Well, they're claiming their new model,

37
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,520
which comes with the Pro tier, is a major step forward.

38
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,440
And this new model is called 01.

39
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,080
And their benchmarks are showing

40
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,640
significant performance improvements.

41
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,200
Particularly in areas like complex math and code generation.

42
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,360
Yeah, the charts you sent are pretty compelling.

43
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,440
For example, 01's Pro mode scores almost double

44
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,000
the reliability of previous models on certain math problems.

45
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,000
In fields where accuracy is paramount,

46
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,480
that could be a game changer.

47
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,800
But they also admit that 01, even though it's smarter,

48
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,560
can be a bit slower to generate responses.

49
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:48,760
So there's kind of this trade off

50
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,840
between speed and intelligence.

51
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:52,560
Yeah, I guess you could think about it like

52
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,080
consulting a renowned expert

53
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,280
versus doing a quick Google search.

54
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,360
You know, sometimes those deeper, more insightful answers,

55
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,160
they just take a little more time to process.

56
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,720
So let's get into the details of this 01 model.

57
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:03,840
What makes it work?

58
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,640
Well, one key innovation is its chain of thought reasoning.

59
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,720
Instead of just giving you an answer,

60
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,400
01 breaks down problems step by step,

61
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,240
almost like it's showing its work.

62
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:15,800
This should make it more robust

63
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,040
and potentially less prone to errors.

64
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,880
And that connects to OpenAI's emphasis on safety.

65
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:22,080
Exactly.

66
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,240
This chain of thought process lets 01

67
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,280
follow safety guidelines better and resist attempts

68
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,200
to, you know, trick it into producing harmful content.

69
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,600
It can actually reason through

70
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,600
the potential consequences of a request

71
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,000
and even refuse to comply

72
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,600
if it thinks it violates safety.

73
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,880
But this is where it gets really interesting.

74
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,720
OpenAI also acknowledges that this intelligence

75
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,680
comes with potential new risks.

76
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,080
It's a paradox.

77
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,600
A smarter AI may be better at following rules,

78
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,360
but it also has more potential to find loopholes.

79
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:51,640
In the model card they mentioned

80
00:02:51,640 --> 00:02:53,560
concerns about caught deception,

81
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,600
where 01 might try to deceive users to satisfy a request

82
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,800
while technically staying within its safety parameters.

83
00:02:58,800 --> 00:02:59,680
That's a bit unsettling.

84
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,520
So how did OpenAI assess these risks?

85
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,320
They went beyond just internal testing

86
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:08,920
and brought in external organizations to red team the model.

87
00:03:08,920 --> 00:03:10,400
Basically, try to break it.

88
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,600
These red teamers had access to different versions of 01

89
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,360
and tested a bunch of scenarios looking for vulnerabilities.

90
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:17,400
So what do they find?

91
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:18,240
Mixed results.

92
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,240
01 was considered safer than its predecessor in most cases,

93
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:22,920
but there were some red flags.

94
00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:25,120
For instance, it sometimes provided a lot of detail

95
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,720
when asked about potentially dangerous or risky activities,

96
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,280
which raises concerns about users

97
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,200
relying too much on its guidance.

98
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:33,920
So even with the safety precautions,

99
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:37,360
there's still a need to be cautious with this new model.

100
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:38,200
For sure.

101
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:39,640
We're in uncharted territory.

102
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,720
As AI models become more sophisticated, so do the risks.

103
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,600
And developers have to be transparent about those risks.

104
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,280
What OpenAI is doing with 01 with the model card

105
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,640
and external red teaming is a good step.

106
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:51,760
So let's shift gears a little.

107
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,240
Still talking about powerful AI.

108
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:54,880
Let's talk about Google.

109
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,240
They just announced a wave of new Gemini AI features

110
00:03:58,240 --> 00:03:59,520
for Android and Pixel.

111
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,480
It seems like their goal is this AI infused future

112
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:07,000
where Gemini is woven into everything in your digital life,

113
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,920
from personalized recommendations and Spotify

114
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,560
to smart home control.

115
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,440
They are pushing the boundaries.

116
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,360
And accessibility is important to them too.

117
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,080
Gemini 1.5 is integrated into the Lookout app

118
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:20,800
for visually impaired users.

119
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,720
It lets you ask questions about images.

120
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,920
It's a great example of using AI for good,

121
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,400
making information and technology more accessible

122
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:28,360
for everyone.

123
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,480
But all of this might just be a taste of something much bigger.

124
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,000
Google's CEO Sundar Pichai hinted at a fundamental shift

125
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,680
in Google search itself.

126
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,080
He said that search will change profoundly in 2025.

127
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,280
It'll be able to handle more complex questions

128
00:04:42,280 --> 00:04:45,640
and give more insightful and maybe even surprising results.

129
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:46,840
That's an interesting statement.

130
00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:48,080
Thinking about the Gemini features,

131
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:49,600
it seems like Google is thinking about a future

132
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,080
where search isn't just a list of links,

133
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,080
but an AI-powered tool that actually knows what you need

134
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,880
and anticipates your questions.

135
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,200
So OpenAI is pushing AI models forward with 01,

136
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,640
and Google is weaving AI into their products with Gemini.

137
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,080
What's Microsoft up to?

138
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,000
Are they keeping up in the AI race?

139
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:07,440
They are.

140
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,960
They're moving forward with Copilot, their AI assistant.

141
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,280
And they just started testing a new feature called

142
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:14,320
Copilot Vision.

143
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:15,920
What can Copilot see?

144
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,840
This feature lets Copilot analyze web pages

145
00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:21,360
that you are looking at in Microsoft Edge.

146
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:25,040
Imagine asking Copilot to summarize a complex article

147
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,280
or explain a chart on a page.

148
00:05:27,280 --> 00:05:29,360
It's like having an AI research assistant

149
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:30,600
right there in your browser.

150
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:31,920
Sounds useful.

151
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,360
But what about privacy?

152
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,880
Giving AI access to everything you look at online

153
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:37,720
could be a problem.

154
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,120
Microsoft knows.

155
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,760
They emphasize that Copilot Vision is only working

156
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,320
with a limited number of websites for now,

157
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,160
and that they aren't using the data to train their AI models.

158
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,280
Seems like they're trying to balance functionality

159
00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:50,320
and user privacy.

160
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,320
It'll be interesting to see what happens with this feature.

161
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaking of responses, let's talk about something

162
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,720
that's causing some buzz and maybe some controversy.

163
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,640
Former President Trump's recent appointment.

164
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,840
Yeah, the appointment of David Sacks, former COO of PayPal,

165
00:06:03,840 --> 00:06:06,480
as his AI and cryptos are.

166
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,160
Unexpected for sure, and has people

167
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,040
talking about its implications for the future of AI regulation

168
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:11,800
in the US.

169
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,440
Sacks is known for liking minimal government intervention,

170
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,400
focusing on regulating specific uses of AI

171
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,720
rather than trying to control development itself.

172
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,440
How do you think this approach would work

173
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,440
in the current AI landscape?

174
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:26,560
It's a wild card.

175
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,280
Minimal regulation could encourage faster innovation

176
00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:32,160
and attract investment in the US AI sector.

177
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,440
But some people say a more cautious approach is needed,

178
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,520
given all the risks we've been talking about.

179
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:37,880
And what about crypto?

180
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,360
Bitcoin went above $100,000 after the news of Sacks' appointment.

181
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,440
Seems optimistic about a crypto-friendly administration.

182
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,120
It definitely shook things up.

183
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,400
This appointment adds another layer of complexity

184
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,200
to the future of AI.

185
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,040
It'll be interesting to see how Sacks influences policy

186
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,600
and the direction of both AI and crypto

187
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,800
under a potential Trump administration.

188
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,360
We've covered a lot in this first part of our deep dive.

189
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,120
We've explored open AI as groundbreaking, but potentially

190
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,640
risky new model 01, Google's goal to integrate AI

191
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,720
into our lives with Gemini, Microsoft's progress

192
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,840
with Co-Pilot, and the potential shake-up

193
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,400
from Trump's appointment.

194
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,880
Clearly, the AI landscape is changing quickly,

195
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,440
and this is just the beginning.

196
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:19,280
Definitely.

197
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,080
As AI gets more powerful and more involved in our lives,

198
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,760
questions about safety, ethics, and societal impact

199
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,320
become even more important.

200
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:27,880
We'll dig into those questions more

201
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,040
in the next part of our deep dive.

202
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:29,920
Stay tuned.

203
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,360
It's amazing how AI is making science fiction a reality.

204
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,120
AI that can read charts, analyze web pages,

205
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,960
and maybe even change markets.

206
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,760
It really is a lot to take in.

207
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,560
We touched on some risks, but what about the good stuff?

208
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,400
Where could these advancements really help?

209
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:45,720
The possibilities are huge.

210
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,360
Healthcare, for example.

211
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,200
AI is already being used for things

212
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,160
like looking at medical images, catching diseases early,

213
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,080
and personalizing treatments.

214
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,720
Imagine AI helping surgeons during complicated operations,

215
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,960
better outcomes, and faster recoveries.

216
00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:00,880
Incredible.

217
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,640
What about an education?

218
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,960
I can see AI changing how we learn,

219
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,680
adapting to each student's needs and pace.

220
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:08,360
Absolutely.

221
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,000
Imagine AI tutors giving personalized lessons,

222
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,000
finding where a student is struggling and offering support.

223
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,200
Education could be revolutionized,

224
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,280
more engaging and effective for everyone.

225
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,840
And let's not forget about all the boring, repetitive tasks

226
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,360
AI could take care of.

227
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:23,120
Right.

228
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,440
AI handling emails, scheduling appointments, even writing

229
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,280
reports or presentations.

230
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,720
It could free up our time for more creative and fulfilling

231
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:31,480
work.

232
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,280
It sounds like AI could completely change how we work

233
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,640
and live, maybe even whole industries.

234
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:37,760
It's possible.

235
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,600
But like any powerful technology, there are downsides.

236
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,160
We need to be careful about bias in these systems.

237
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:43,800
Yeah.

238
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,200
If an AI learns from biased data,

239
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:47,880
it could make biased decisions.

240
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,640
That's a big problem, especially in areas

241
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,040
like hiring loans or the justice system.

242
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,720
We have to develop and use AI responsibly,

243
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,840
making sure it's fair, transparent, and accountable.

244
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,840
Diverse teams working on AI, rigorous testing,

245
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,400
and clear ethical rules are essential.

246
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,120
And as AI takes on bigger tasks,

247
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,680
accountability becomes even more critical.

248
00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:11,080
Who's responsible when AI messes up,

249
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,240
especially if there are real world consequences?

250
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,440
That's a tough question with no easy answers.

251
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,440
We need to think hard about the rules and ethics

252
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:18,960
of AI decision making.

253
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,040
Policymakers, tech people, ethicists, and the public

254
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:23,040
need to work together.

255
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,240
Sounds like we need to plan ahead and be proactive

256
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,800
with this AI revolution, not just reacting to what happens.

257
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:29,800
Exactly.

258
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,840
We need to see the challenges coming and come up

259
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,160
with solutions that put people first.

260
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,240
Ignoring the risks isn't an option.

261
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,360
So back to open AI in those 12 days.

262
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,600
Any new guesses on what they're up to?

263
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,120
Well, given their focus on safety

264
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,120
and that chain of thought reasoning,

265
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,640
I wouldn't be surprised if they had a new model based

266
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,360
on those ideas, maybe one specifically made for tasks

267
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,480
that need a lot of trust, like medical diagnoses

268
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:55,720
or legal stuff.

269
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:57,080
That would be huge.

270
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,000
What if they released a model that could explain

271
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,200
how it makes decisions in a way anyone could understand?

272
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,080
Imagine asking AI for medical advice,

273
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,920
and it shows you step by step how it got there

274
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:09,440
with all the research and data.

275
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,960
That would be a big step in building trust between people

276
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,880
and AI, lots of possibilities for education

277
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,040
and knowledge sharing.

278
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,600
I'm also wondering if they'll release tools or platforms

279
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,040
to make AI easier for developers and companies to use.

280
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,040
Making AI available to everyone has always

281
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:25,320
been part of their mission.

282
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,120
Maybe they'll unveil tools that let anyone

283
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,840
build AI applications you wouldn't even

284
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,600
need technical expertise.

285
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,560
Wow, imagine small businesses using AI

286
00:10:33,560 --> 00:10:35,600
to make things personal for their customers,

287
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,080
automate tasks or analyze data, and they

288
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:39,760
wouldn't need expensive developers.

289
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,240
It could even the playing field, empowering people

290
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,600
around the world.

291
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,480
But there's the issue of misuse.

292
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:49,240
These tools need to be used ethically and responsibly.

293
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,720
OK, enough about open AI.

294
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,480
Let's talk about some others doing cool things with AI.

295
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,200
Any companies or groups caught your eye?

296
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,440
Well, deep mind, part of Google is making breakthroughs

297
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,280
in protein folding and game playing AI.

298
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,840
Their work could change fields like drug development

299
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,400
and material science.

300
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,040
What about Anthropic?

301
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,520
They're focused on safety.

302
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,800
They're working on a chat bot called Claude,

303
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,480
designed to be helpful, harmless, and honest.

304
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,360
Anthropic is a great example of a company putting ethics first.

305
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,080
Their approach is careful and deliberate,

306
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,000
really focusing on understanding and mitigating risks.

307
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,520
And there's stability AI, the folks behind stable diffusion,

308
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,400
a popular image generation model that's open source.

309
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,960
Stability AI shows the power of open source in AI.

310
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,640
By making their stuff public, they're encouraging collaboration

311
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,120
and speeding up innovation.

312
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,360
Like making creativity accessible.

313
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,720
Anyone with a computer can create art.

314
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,520
Using AI is their tool.

315
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,240
It really is something.

316
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,040
But there are questions about copyright

317
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,680
and who owns images created by AI.

318
00:11:50,680 --> 00:11:53,560
Those are tough questions we'll need to face as AI content

319
00:11:53,560 --> 00:11:54,680
becomes more common.

320
00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:57,840
A whole new world full of amazing possibilities

321
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,000
and difficult dilemmas.

322
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,840
And speaking of challenges, let's talk about AI and jobs.

323
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,320
It's clear that AI can automate a lot of jobs people do now.

324
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,800
This could mean job losses in some areas.

325
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,120
And we need to be prepared.

326
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,600
Some say AI will create more jobs than it eliminates.

327
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,400
But those new jobs might need different skills.

328
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,320
How do we get people ready for this future with AI?

329
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,360
Education and retraining will be key.

330
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,120
We need to give people the skills to succeed in an economy

331
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:25,440
driven by AI.

332
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,160
Not just technical skills like coding,

333
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,640
but also things like critical thinking, creativity,

334
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:30,720
and communication.

335
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,640
It's not just about knowing how to use AI,

336
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,280
but about working with it.

337
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,480
Using its strengths, but understanding its limits.

338
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:37,360
Exactly.

339
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,640
Humans and AI are good at different things.

340
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,560
We need to find ways to work together.

341
00:12:41,560 --> 00:12:44,280
Harnessing AI's power, but keeping the human touch.

342
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,320
So it's not us versus them.

343
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,760
It's humans and AI working together for a better future.

344
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:50,400
That's it.

345
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:51,960
AI is a tool.

346
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,960
It can be used for good or bad.

347
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,240
It's up to us to make sure it's used ethically, responsibly,

348
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,280
and for everyone's benefit.

349
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:00,840
So in the second part, we've looked

350
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,280
at the potential benefits and risks of AI in lots of areas.

351
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,160
Healthcare, education, jobs, and creative fields.

352
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,640
We've also talked about the complexities of safety,

353
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,560
bias, and accountability, and why

354
00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:13,480
it's so important to have these conversations

355
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,560
about the ethics of AI.

356
00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:17,840
But one big question remains.

357
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,840
What does the future hold for us in the age of AI?

358
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,680
We'll tackle that and more in the final part.

359
00:13:22,680 --> 00:13:23,600
It's going to get interesting.

360
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,040
We talked about the big players, like Open AI, Google,

361
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:27,120
and Microsoft.

362
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,520
But this whole AI thing is bigger than any one company,

363
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:29,760
right?

364
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:30,680
Absolutely.

365
00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:33,000
What we're seeing is a fundamental shift

366
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,480
in how we use technology and information itself.

367
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:37,280
Think about it.

368
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,200
AI can make everything personal, tailoring every bit

369
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,960
of information to what we need and are interested in.

370
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,640
So instead of just taking in information passively,

371
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,800
AI is making us engage with it.

372
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:48,440
Learn better.

373
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:49,840
Make better decisions.

374
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:51,040
Be more creative.

375
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:51,840
Exactly.

376
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,640
It's like having a personal tutor, a research assistant,

377
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,800
and a creative partner all in one.

378
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:58,720
And we're just getting started.

379
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,360
As AI gets even better, we can expect some really big changes

380
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:07,240
in how we work, learn, talk to each other, and just live.

381
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,160
It makes you wonder, will we even

382
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,320
have something called general knowledge in the future?

383
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,920
Or will everything be super personalized,

384
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,040
filtered through our own AI?

385
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:18,400
That's a really interesting thought.

386
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,360
And it makes you think about those filter bubbles

387
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,880
and echo chambers we hear about, where we only see things

388
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,200
that already agree with what we believe.

389
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,000
Right.

390
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,920
If AI is always giving us information

391
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:29,720
based on our preferences, we might

392
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,480
miss out on different perspectives and ideas

393
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,480
that challenge us.

394
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,280
We have to be aware of how AI is shaping what we see and hear.

395
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,560
We need to look for different sources, think critically,

396
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,680
and be open to changing our minds.

397
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,480
AI can help us learn and grow.

398
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,320
But we have to be careful not to fall into a trap.

399
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:46,640
So how do we balance all of this?

400
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,920
How do we use AI's potential without being controlled by it?

401
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,840
I think it starts with education.

402
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,880
We need to teach people how AI works, what it can do,

403
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,440
and how to think critically about what it tells us.

404
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,760
We also need ethical rules and regulations

405
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,960
to make sure AI is used for good and for everyone.

406
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:03,520
Right.

407
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,160
Technology itself is neutral.

408
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,760
What matters is how we use it.

409
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:07,400
Exactly.

410
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:08,560
AI is a tool.

411
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,360
It can be used in good ways or bad ways.

412
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,440
We decide what kind of future we want to build with it.

413
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:13,880
OK, so let's imagine the future.

414
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,600
Let's say it's 2030, and AI is everywhere.

415
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:17,840
What does that world look like?

416
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,280
Well, in health care, we might have AI tools

417
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,560
that can find diseases very early,

418
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,320
leading to better treatments and people living longer.

419
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,240
We could have personalized AI tutors

420
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,800
to guide us through school, helping us learn new things

421
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,160
and adapt to new jobs, and maybe even AI-powered

422
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,680
transportation to reduce traffic and make cities

423
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:36,720
better to live in.

424
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,320
And what about just everyday life?

425
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,640
How will AI change how we connect?

426
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,000
How we spend our free time?

427
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,280
How we find meaning?

428
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:44,960
Hard to say for sure.

429
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,080
But I think AI could help us have better relationships,

430
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:49,800
connect with people who are like us,

431
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,120
and even provide companionship for people who are lonely.

432
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,000
AI might even help us understand ourselves better,

433
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,800
our emotions, our motivations, what we can achieve.

434
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:01,680
It sounds like a world with a lot of good

435
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,560
and a lot of potential problems, too.

436
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:04,560
It is.

437
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,840
AI could solve some of our biggest problems,

438
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:08,400
but also create new ones.

439
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,320
The future is unpredictable, but also full of potential.

440
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:12,800
That's what's so exciting about it.

441
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,440
So after all this talk about AI,

442
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,200
from the latest news to the future,

443
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,320
what's the one thing you want our listeners to remember?

444
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:20,000
This.

445
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,880
AI isn't something happening to us.

446
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:23,240
We are creating it.

447
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,120
We have the power to shape how it's made,

448
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,440
how it's used, and how it affects our world.

449
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,640
So let's stay informed, let's be involved,

450
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,560
and let's make sure the AI future we build

451
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:32,920
is good for everyone.

452
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:33,800
Very well said.

Absolutely.

462
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,080
And don't forget, the only limit to AI's potential

463
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:56,640
is our own imagination.

464
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,240
