Gen Z's Career Shift, AI Home Security, Lifespan Prediction, and the Dark Side of Voice Cloning


Listen Later

We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!

In today's episode, we explore how Gen Z is reshaping the job market by increasingly opting for blue-collar careers, driven by economic factors and concerns about AI disrupting traditional office roles. We also delve into the controversial use of tear gas in AI home security systems like PaintCam, which raises ethical concerns about the use of such deterrents in residential settings.

Next, we discuss Life2vec, an AI tool that estimates an individual's lifespan based on various health and demographic data, raising significant ethical and privacy concerns. Additionally, we examine a concerning incident of unauthorized AI voice cloning, where BBC presenter Liz Bonnin's likeness and voice were used without her consent in an advertising campaign, highlighting the need for regulatory measures to address the challenges posed by advanced AI technologies.

Finally, we look ahead to a historic event where Pope Francis will attend the upcoming G7 summit to discuss the challenges and implications of artificial intelligence, bringing a unique perspective on the moral and ethical dimensions of AI. His participation is expected to generate significant interest and add a new dimension to the critical discussions surrounding the development and governance of artificial intelligence.
