AI minutes – “AI at the turning point: progress, responsibility and new challenges”

In this episode of AI Minutes, Lily and Daniel highlight the most
fascinating and controversial developments in artificial
intelligence. We start with a look at OpenAI's latest model
GPT-4o, which is free and open to everyone - a milestone that
opens up many new possibilities, but also raises important
questions about privacy and data security.





It continues with one of the first fully autonomous crypto trades
conducted by AIs and the incredible story of AI-controlled
civilizations in Minecraft. But not all developments are so
positive: in the music industry, a producer has used AI to scam
millions in royalties - a new form of abuse that shows how
urgently rules for the use of AI are needed.





Sergey Brin, Google co-founder, returns to the office full of
enthusiasm for the latest AI advances, while 200 employees at
Google protest against the use of AI for military purposes. The
creative sector is also under pressure: in Switzerland, the use
of AI tools has led to many creatives losing their jobs.





And finally, Lily and Daniel show how AI is also being used in
the fight against the spread of viruses - a project that uses
AI-controlled drones to monitor and reduce mosquito populations
in order to combat diseases such as Zika and dengue.





This episode is about innovation, responsibility and the exciting
but also challenging ethical questions that the AI revolution
brings with it.
