Is ChatGPT the beginning of a general AI revolution?
About this episode
When ChatGPT came on the scene late last year, it was seen by many as a novel and fun piece of new technology, to others like Nick Cave, "a grotesque mockery of what it is to be human".
But as new generations of AI come online in the weeks and months ahead, what exactly does that mean for us?
Will we look back to this year and say this is when it all changed?
Joining Jonathan to discuss where we are with AI technologies and where we are headed is Dr. Benjamin Cowan, Associate Professor at UCD's School of Information and Communication Studies and Co-Principal Investigator at The ADAPT Centre & Naomi Harte, Professor in Speech Technology in the School of Engineering in Trinity College.
