AI is here - but it won't last.
Cyber security expert, author, and activist, Kim Crawley makes the case that generative AI is unsustainable, and will eventually meet its demise. But not before our power grids, our water supplies and our minds take a hit.
An GenAI abolitionist, Kim is researching for a new book; one that will examine the impacts of this relatively new and unchecked technology the oligarchs are "pushing down our throats". It will also help lay the plans for a recovery from GenAI.
Host Jessa McLean asks Kim about Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's promised investments in AI, and the efforts by some to 'democratize' the technology, rather than reject it altogether. Listen in to hear her takes, learn more about AI and plug into ways you can help.
