Episode 71: Taking the art out of artificial: Has AI gone too far?


Listen Later

This week on Culture Bites, Enas Refaei and Farah Andrews discuss the ethical consideration of using artificial intelligence to create art.

Their conversation is inspired by the recent viral trend of promoting AI generators like ChatGPT to convert personal photos into Studio Ghibli-style images. The founder of the famous Japanese animation house, Hayao Miyazaki, is staunchly critical of integrating AI into artistic designs. This led to much debate over where to draw the line when it comes to intellectual property and whether it may constitute copyright violations.

In keeping with the theme of digital innovation and moral ambiguity, Enas and Farah preview the new season of Black Mirror. After 14 years since it first launched, the show is back again for a seventh season, with a star-studded cast that includes Peter Capaldi, Chris O'Dowd and Rashida Jones.

The hosts reflect on some of the most critically acclaimed episodes from seasons past and tease some of the upcoming ones. They discuss the cautionary tales from the show and how dangerously close some of them are to becoming a reality.
