As discussed in our previous episodes we believe AI has some exciting potential, but we also recognise that it is not without its drawbacks. Along with societal concerns, There are also concerns over AI’s power consumption, and its impact on the environment. In this episode, we discuss a range of concerns related to AI development, including sustainability, power consumption, the cult-like atmosphere of the tech world, potential data scarcity, and the implications of AI for copyright and the art world.
