Season 2 - Artificial Intelligence Unleashed

The power of generative models of Artificial intelligence like ChatGPT and Dall-E dominate the headlines, for good, and of course for bad, these days. They bring promise, yes, but also a kind of fear. So could they be a Frankenstein’s monster of a technology? Or something that could save the planet? And where did it all come from, anyway? In this, our first episode of a new season of Playing with Reality focusing on Artificial Intelligence, we take a look at the fascinating history of AI to discover more about how it went from a niche theoretical field to the world defining technology it is today, exploring its possibilities and potential dangers.
 
Host Menno Van Doorn also introduces his new co-host Tijana Nikolic, a Sogeti AI expert, who will be joining him all season to comment on the interviews and discuss the fascinating themes.
