Summary
Artificial intelligence is the topic of a lot of conversations at the moment - and recent research commissioned by Minderoo Foundation shows that us Aussies have a bunch of concerns. So thanks to Minderoo, we’ve been able to talk to some of those experts in a special Squiz Series of podcasts on AI. For part three, we’ve spoken with Professor Ian Langford. Ian is definitely a big-picture thinker - he’s a former brigadier in the Australian Defence Force, and he’s since turned his attention to looking at how artificial intelligence plays our national security. He talks about the link between energy and national security, how the global world order has changed, and what we need to do to keep ourselves secure.
