(BOSTON) The REAL problem with AI! Plus, how AI will change music, love, & SEX?! - Google’s Colby Banbury

The Found Generation with Troy Farkas

Artificial intelligence is the buzz term of 2023. You can't scroll social media or read The New York Times without coming across it. With that said, the average person -- especially the older generation -- has a lot of misconceptions about what AI truly is and what its true impact will be on the world now and in the future.

So to provide some clarity on this seemingly existential crisis, I've enlisted the help of Google researcher, former Apple intern, Harvard PhD student, and my friend Colby Banbury. From his home in Somerville, MA, Colby and I discuss the following on today's episode (0:00):

• The benefits of incorporating AI into our everyday lives (9:10)
• Whether there's any truth to the notion that the robots will take over the world (23:19)
• What could happen if the power of AI ends up in the wrong hands (27:04)
• How AI can both help and harm our own self-development, relationships, and sex (30:00)
• Whether advanced technology like AI is a net positive or net negative for the human race (53:17)

And much more.
