Welcome back to the AI Australia Podcast. After an extensive hiatus, we decided to revive the show but felt it was paramount to pivot the overall theme. Incredible advancements are being made in the world of artificial intelligence; however, very little attention is given to the moral and ethical considerations of the technology. Given how fast AI technology is progressing, we feel it is imperative to bring these issues to light. To help unpack these nuanced ideas are hosts Natalie Rouse & Dr. Kobi Leins, experts on AI. On this first episode of the AI Australia Podcast, we discuss AI technology and the governance challenges that AI poses. We start by learning about our hosts' professional backgrounds, the unique viewpoints they can offer on the subject, and the company Eliiza. Then, we get into the nitty gritty of AI and talk about the ethical and moral considerations, the definition of AI, the ecosystem that AI operates in, and the positives and benefits of the technology. We unpack the use of AI language models, the role of Australia in the AI space, how AI may impact broader society, and much more. Tune in and join us as we start another adventure and explore the responsible use of AI with hosts Natalie Rouse & Dr. Kobi Leins!
