Summary

There's a fresh wave of headlines claiming that AI is eating the workforce whole, and that the only way to have a job is to become the person who builds the robots. Is this a reasonable assumption? Or has "AI-washing" just become the most convenient way to excuse a restructure? Plus, a genuine artistic community has grown around taking photos in video games. Who owns those creations? And, wired headphones are back? Wired headphone revenue jumped 20 percent in the first six weeks of 2026. Why? GUESTS: Kath Albury -- Professor of Technology at Swinburne University, and Associate Investigator at the ARC Centre for Excellence In Automated Decision Making and Society. Mark Serrels -- Editorial Director at Choice and co-founder of Continue Magazine. This episode was produced on the lands of the Burramattagal people.
