The final episode of our two-part story of Artificial Intelligence. Having looked at the emergence and development of AI in part one we now turn to the future and assess the dangers and possibilities it raises.We weigh up two arguments concerning existential risk.

Others worry that it will simply deliver disastrous outcomes on the basis of badly established requests. For instance, if you ask a highly advanced machine to create paperclips, with no additional restrictions...

MIA Conversation with Susie Alegre, International Lawyer, Author and Speaker
In the age of Deepfake AI and misinformation, everyone has an opinion on whether Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a friend or foe. The question of whether AI is a friend or a foe is a nuanced one. It largely depends on how AI is used and managed. AI has the potential to be a powerful ally in various fields, enhancing efficiency, aiding in complex problem-solving, and even performing tasks that can be dangerous for humans. On the other hand, if not developed or used responsibly, AI could pose risks to job security, privacy, and ethical standards.
