To what extent is Artificial Intelligence part of your life? It has been part of our lives for years, but we are currently witnessing the astonishing strides that it has been making in more recent times. From excelling in complicated tasks to groundbreaking scientific research AI is reshaping our world. (We talked on last week's programme about its developing role in predicting health prognoses and our mortality. That discussion is still available on BBC Sounds) What about its growth in the world of education, the literary world, and its impact on the human brain, particularly those of our younger generations? Will we ultimately have less appreciation and understanding of what's happening in the world around us and how we interact with each other? Will it turn our brains to mush or will it make us smarter? Audrey Carville has been in conversation with Katy Hayward, professor of political sociology at Queen’s University Belfast, theologian, author, and lecturer, Professor Stephen Williams who co-edited the book The Robot Will See You Now; and Dr James Sumner who lectures in the History of Technology at the University of Manchester.
