Description

AI is creepy, I think most people agree. And it's beginnings include the pirating of countless copyrighted material to train AI models - which is a crime - so is it a surprise that AI has become Big Brother? Looking in on our lives and movements, then reporting back when we make what's perceived as a misstep?

This week we are diving into AI policing, facial recognition, and AI scams.

Let's get into it!

In this episode we cover

• NAACP defines predictive policing, warns of problems and prejudices and offers suggestions
• Facial recognition is already here - and might be changing the prices of your groceries
• Colorado is taking a different approach to AI - and their experiment means more transparency and guardrails
• AI scams are everywhere and we cover the top ones
• Real-life stories of when AI gets it wrong
