In this episode, your hosts answer a question from a listener asking their opinion on artificial intelligence, such as ChatGPT, and its potential to impact work and the home. Further, they ask if AI can help solve big challenges, like the mental health crisis, health inequality and climate change. Emma and Sara offer their opinions on the use of artificial intelligence in different spheres, including the implications for copyright, credit for published work, ethical use, and how new technology exacerbates existing inequalities. Finally, your hosts ask ChatGPT what it thinks it can do for addressing these problems, and offer their critique and conclusion: artificial intelligence won't save us, even though promises that technology will fix society's biggest issues are seductive.
