The AI Fix #24: Where are the alien AIs, and are we being softened up for superintelligence?

In episode 24 of The AI Fix, Mark makes an unforgivable error about the Terminator franchise, our hosts wonder if a “seductive” government chatbot will make it easier to talk about tax, a radio station abandons its three month AI experiment after a week, and OpenAI parks its tanks on Google’s lawn.

Graham gets cosmic and wonders why we aren’t surrounded by advanced alien AIs, our hosts argue about whether the moon landings or the invention of the cheese sandwich were more consequential events in human history, and Mark tells Graham that artificial superintelligence is just around the corner.

All this and much more is discussed in the latest edition of “The AI Fix” podcast by Graham Cluley and Mark Stockley.
