Episode 22 – Brought to you by China, the letter “N” and Winnie the Pooh.

Welcome back to the Tech Fugitives podcast.  When China bans the letter “N”, they become…you know… “Chia”.  It’s just a pet name.

When China locks down speech, they don’t mess around.  They go right after seditious concepts….like Winnie the Poo, uh…. and the Letter “N”.  I don’t think President XI could get his nose caught in a honey jar, but he’s trying …. hard!  We don’t see the likeness…really!

Episode 0 – Elon Musk Wants AI Regulation

The First Episode of the Tech Fugitives Show!

Welcome to the first episode of the Tech Fugitive's show with Mark Tierney and Kyle Scarmardo! Elon Musk is in the news again, but this time about AI.  Hear them discuss how he wants government to step in and regulate it before it goes too far.  Elon Musk believes AI could manipulate information and cause riots or even war.  He's not alone either, Stephen Hawking has also warned about this as well.  He believes regulation is needed to prevent investors from pushing for functionality that could bring about harm.  Elon Musk says we need a level playing field for everyone in the game to manage this situation.  The Tech Fugitives discuss how this could happen.  They also discuss how Elon was almost killed by AI over a chicken dinner.  Don't try to take a T2000's fried chicken.  As always, the Tech Fugitives discuss the implications to the enterprise IT space.

Elon fights a T2000 over fried chicken!

We consider how the recent fake new situations could lend truth to Elon's position.  In our society we see violent emotional reactions to news regularly.  What if AI decides the right course of action is to manipulate information to get rid of a specific group of people?  Hawking has a great quote about ant piles that speaks to this.  Of course, this episode would not be complete without robot movie quotes.  Directive four from Robocop!  Mark expresses concerns about dating AI robots in the workspace.  Kyle mentions how urine tests won't be good enough when hiring in the future.  AI will fix the damage fried foods are causing to our bodies.

Will regulation be the answer?  Listen to hear our position.  Thanks for tuning in.  Please subscribe and give us a five star rating if you found value in this.
