News: We are transitioning to a weekly format. Our target audience is busy IT professionals, many of whom do not have the time to listen daily. A once-a-week format is more congruent with the lifestyle and preferences of our professional audience.
Today’s episode reviews a recent press event from President Trump that occured on July 23 regarding artificial intelligence and how the U.S. plans to compete with countries like China. CBS News interviewed Mike Isaac, a technology correspondent for The New York Times, about the details of the Trump Administration plan.
Hosts Daphne and Fred share their spirited analysis of this fresh announcement from President Trump and the analysis by Isaac and CBS—including an examination of the potential pros and cons of AI adaptation and topics such as training bias, fraud, and employment impact.
"It will not be AI that takes away the job of a technical writer, but rather another technical writer with keep AI skills," said Robbins after hearing the interview.
