12. Artificial Intelligence, ChatGPT, and The Terminator | What Are We Talking About? | Ben Lewis
Are we standing at the dawn of a new utopia, or are we inching closer to the plot of Terminator 2?
In this episode, host Ben Lewis cuts through the tech jargon, billion-dollar valuations, and fear-mongering to ask the ultimate question: What is Artificial Intelligence actually doing to the human experience?
From ChatGPT and Google Gemini to the dark corners of AI companionship, we aren’t just talking about code—we’re talking about consequences. Join us as we explore the blurring line between reality and simulation, and whether we are evolving as a species or simply outsourcing our brains.
In this episode, we cover:
The Reality Check: Is AI truly creative, or just a "fancy parrot" remixing human data?
The Loneliness Epidemic: The rise of AI companions and the dangerous psychological impact of artificial relationships.
Geopolitics & War: How the weaponization of AI and control over rare earth minerals could shift global power dynamics.
Deepfakes & Disinformation: The terrifying rise of political deepfakes, including a look at Matt Walsh’s viral encounter with his own AI clone.
The Death of Authenticity: Can you tell the difference between a human artist and an AI-generated country song? (We play the audio!)
Education & Jobs: Navigating the ethics of AI in schools and the displacement of creative industries like web development.
Technology changes, but human nature doesn’t. Whether you view AI as the greatest tool humanity has ever built or the last invention we’ll ever need, this episode is your guide to understanding the future before it becomes the past.
