AI Haven't A Clue

AI REPLACES 200 JOBS at Wimbledon, AI Bands at Glastonbury and Jennifer Aniston SCAMMED ME?1

Tennis fans, cover your ears—Wimbledon just sacked its 147-year-old line judge tradition in favour of AI! That’s right, over 200 humans out, cold robotic accuracy in. Meanwhile, at Glastonbury, we’re wondering: is it only a matter of time before an AI act headlines the Pyramid Stage? And straight from the main stage, we're even hearing from Jarvis Cocker with his thoughts on the use of AI.

As always, we're bringing you the biggest and weirdest AI news:

  • Microsoft’s new AI doctor that scores 8/10 while human medics only manage a 2/10.

  • A man gets scammed by AI-generated Jennifer Aniston asking for Apple gift cards. No, really.

  • AI-enhanced four-day workweeks

  • Listener Libby asks: “Will AI be playing Glasto?” We dive in and name-drop the Velvet Sundown , a mysterious AI band making waves on Spotify.

Our guest is the fabulous Tara Thompson—AI educator, workshop wizard, and inclusivity advocate—who’s using tech to level the playing field for neurodivergent users and beyond. She shares why we all need to read (or AI-summarise) those Terms & Conditions, what red flags to watch for, and how to make AI actually inclusive. It all starts with US.

And of course, this week’s AI Challenge gets lyrical as George and James try to spot which poem is from ChatGPT, and which won second prize at the National Poetry Competition. It gets emotional. Like, “fluorescent tube thrown like a javelin” emotional.

James’s top tip: Use Epicure AI to turn fridge chaos into fine dining - https://epicure.kaikaku.ai/ - let us know how you get on!
