    AI for the masses

    AI for the masses

    You may have used a screen recorder, but what if it was indexed by an AI? Elon Musk has money, why does he want your $8? What does it mean when everyone has access to deep fakes? Can you solve climate change with a big beam of microwave energy?
    1: That's a terrible idea 2: Does it matter what he wants it for, millions will give him it. 3: That's another terrible idea. 4: No.
    You should still listen to the podcast anyway!

    The amazing Sherlock Holmes... AI Support bot which Lachlan has dealt with many times and is, to put it mildly, incredibly convincing.
