AI Australia Presents: This Week in AI vol 10
Update: 2023-12-01
Description
This week join Kobi and Natalie as they discuss some perhaps seemingly-unrelated global trends, and ponder how AI may or may not impact or amplify them in the future.
We raise questions about:
- There are around 40 upcoming elections happening around the world in 2024; have we already seen advancements in AI play a role in driving a shift to the right, and what might we expect to see in the next year?
- There is a trend where local media is becoming increasingly scarce - what does that mean for our local collective understandings & conversations, and global polarisation?
- The lack of diversity (gender and otherwise) in technology media (and the technology industry in general) presents a major hurdle for language models of the future as it leads to a lack of variety in the type of voices on record today, and hence in training data tomorrow.
