Living With AI Podcast: Challenges of Living with Artificial Intelligence Sean Riley
-
- Technology
This podcast digs into key issues that arise when building, operating, and using machines and apps that are powered by artificial intelligence. We look at industry, homes and cities. AI is increasingly being used to help optimise our lives, making software and machines faster, more precise, and generally easier to use. However, they also raise concerns when they fail, misuse our data, or are too complex for the users to understand their implications. Set up by the UKRI Trustworthy Autonomous Systems Hub this podcast brings in experts in the field from Industry & Academia to discuss Robots in Space, Driverless Cars, Autonomous Ships, Drones, Covid-19 Track & Trace and much more.

AI & Audio
From deep fakes to voice assistants, AI audio is ubiquitous yet often overlooked. Dr Jennifer Williams tells Sean all about the project: "The Next Big Thing in Trustworthy AI: Codesign of Context Aware Trustworthy Audio Capture" which asks the question "Do we really trust the autonomous audio systems (AAUS) that exist around us?"
This is the final episode in this season's Living with AI, we hope you've enjoyed listening and hopefully we'll see you next season!

AI and the Arts (Featuring Blast Theory)
We're discussing AI and the arts, featuring Blast Theory with a discussion of their latest work 'Cat Royale' where an autonomous system attempts to create a cat utopia.
Feature interview with Matt & Ju from Blast Theory recorded on May 11th 2023
Panel Discussion recorded on May 26th 2023
On the panel we have:
Tim Smith-Laing Executive Master Programme Director of the Royal Academy of Arts
Ali Hossaini a TAS artist in residence
Steve Benford, TAS Creative Lead, Founder of the Mixed Reality Lab at the University of Nottingham.
Chat GPT summary when prompted to talk about the lionisation of art:
"In summary, AI's role in making art more accessible is indeed a positive development. By removing barriers and providing opportunities for engagement, AI can contribute to a more inclusive and diverse appreciation of art, empowering individuals to explore and connect with the artistic world in ways they may have thought were unattainable."
