Episode 60: Now That We Think About AI

Hi everyone —

In this episode, Allison and I discuss the complicated and multi-faceted topic of AI. And this is me writing — Alice — not the AI software embedded in the system that we use to record this podcast.

We decided on the topic after Allison realized AI had completely manufactured a quote from a previous guest on the podcast, Pete Mulvey, as well as fabricated two entire false careers for herself, through the new AI feature on Instagram.

As always, our conversations don’t come from a place of absolute knowledge, rather from a place of inquiry, so to spark conversations that we hope you will all be having in your community of friends, family, co-workers, neighbors.

We are including a couple of very useful links to do your research and know more about the environmental impact of AI, and about the power we all have in re-sizing its in our lives:

AI Resist List

Data Centers by Erin Brockovich

Duck Duck Go

Please, email us (or comment here) and let us know what your experience has been with AI, what you think of it, and whether something similar to what happened to Allison has also happened to you, or someone you know.
