What happens when facial recognition technology gets it wrong? We unravel the cases of innocent people being misidentified as shoplifters. We'll touch on ChatGPT’s recent downtime, and the steps developers are taking to restore its functionality. For our European listeners, we'll detail how you can opt out of AI training using your social media posts—a privilege not available to U.S. users. We’ll also dissect Elon Musk’s decision to reroute AI chips from Tesla to his AI startup, XAI, and discuss the implications of Microsoft integrating AI into customer service call centers.
We explore the Facial Recognition Concerns and brace yourself for a deep dive into massive leaks from YouTube and security lapses affecting Grand Theft Auto’s newest game. These incidents underline the critical need for employee oversight. We’ll also focus on Elon Musk's controversial decision to divert AI chips from TESLA to his AI venture, XAI, exploring this move's ethical and legal ramifications.
Finally, we unpack the world of sophisticated email scams and phishing tactics. Learn about the intricate ways scammers manipulate email conversations and the differences between phishing attacks and scams. We’ll also explore how stories of old internet memes like “All your base are belong to us” play into the current digital landscape. Wrapping up on a lighter note, we'll share how technology is empowering coffee farmers and celebrate National Cognac Day, comparing the taste of cognac to bourbon.
