episode Is AI Fundamentally Biased? The Truth About AI Governance | Raj Bharat Patel cover

Is AI Fundamentally Biased? The Truth About AI Governance | Raj Bharat Patel

In this episode of The Age of AI, Lara Lewington and Ben Clark are joined by Raj Bharat Patel, AI Transformation Lead at Holistic AI, to explore one of the most important questions in artificial intelligence today: is AI fundamentally biased? From hallucinations and governance to accountability and trust, Raj explains why the biggest challenge facing AI may not be the technology itself, but how organisations choose to deploy it. The conversation explores whether AI can ever be truly unbiased, why governance isn't just a box-ticking exercise, how companies can reduce AI risk without slowing innovation, and what could trigger the industry's next major reckoning. Along the way, they discuss: • Why AI systems inherit biases from human history • How businesses test AI for bias and hallucinations • The growing importance of AI governance • Whether regulation helps or hinders innovation • The risks of deploying AI without safeguards • Who is responsible when AI gets things wrong • Why trust may be the most important factor in AI adoption • Whether the current AI boom is a bubble#AI #ArtificialIntelligence #AIGovernance #ResponsibleAI #MachineLearning Learn more about your ad choices.

episode If AI Has a Brain, What Happens When We Give It a Body? | Dr Shan Luo cover

If AI Has a Brain, What Happens When We Give It a Body? | Dr Shan Luo

What happens when artificial intelligence leaves the screen and steps into the physical world? In this episode of The Age of AI, Lara Lewington and Ben Clark explore the fast-emerging frontier of embodied and physical AI with guest Dr Shan Luo, a robotics researcher at King’s College London working at the cutting edge of robot perception, tactile sensing, and intelligent machines that can physically interact with the world. Together they unpack the big question: if AI has a brain, what happens when we give it a body? From robots that can “feel” objects through advanced tactile sensors, to machines learning to operate in messy, unpredictable real-world environments, this conversation dives deep into how AI is evolving beyond software into physical agents that could one day assist in homes, hospitals, warehouses, and even elderly care. They discuss: * Why robots struggle in unstructured real-world environments * How tactile sensing gives machines a “sense of touch” * The role of physics, simulation, and world models in robotics * Whether humanoid robots are actually the right design * The safety and ethical challenges of autonomous machines * How embodied AI could transform care, work, and daily life #ai #robotics #techpodcast #futuretechnology #machinelearning Learn more about your ad choices.

Don't Switch Your Brain Off: How To Stop Your Brain Becoming AI Slop | Lara Lewington & Ben Clark

Is AI making us smarter... or slowly making us useless? In this episode of The Age of AI, Lara Lewington and Ben Clarke tackle one of the biggest questions surrounding artificial intelligence today. As AI becomes increasingly woven into our daily lives, are these tools helping us flourish, create and solve bigger problems — or are they encouraging us to outsource our thinking altogether? From AI assistants managing emails and schedules to groundbreaking advances in healthcare, brain-computer interfaces and disease detection, the conversation explores the enormous opportunities AI presents. But it also confronts the growing concerns around dependency, critical thinking, memory and what happens when we stop questioning the answers AI gives us. Along the way, Lara and Ben discuss: • Whether AI is augmenting human intelligence or replacing it • How AI could transform healthcare and medical diagnosis • Neuralink and the future of brain-computer interfaces • Why AI may help doctors rather than replace them • The danger of "AI slop" and outsourcing your thinking • What AI means for future generations growing up with these tools• How to use AI without losing the skills that matter most The Age of AI looks beyond the headlines to explore the technologies, ideas and decisions shaping the future. 👍 Like, subscribe and leave a comment with your thoughts: Is AI making us smarter or making us lazy? #ai #artificialintelligence #technology #futureofwork #healthcareai #neuralink #machinelearning #innovation Learn more about your ad choices.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
