Summary
While it sounds like a movie plot, AI companies and industry insiders warn that failing to apply curbs and safety guardrails to artificial intelligence could lead to a loss of human control, autonomous swarms taking over the internet, and existential threats like human extinction. This hour, Dr. Blaine Fisher, Tulane AI strategist, joins Dave Cohen to unpack what is really happening on the front lines of artificial intelligence, how to navigate the ethical crossroad, what controls need to be put in place, and what ordinary people need to know to stay ahead in an automated world.
