AI and democracy: So far, so harmless?
Manage episode 423577429 series 2516614
In the UK's general election, Steve is running to be MP for Brighton. In Wyoming in the United States, Vic is running to be mayor. Both of them are not in fact human, but created by artificial intelligence. On this week's Tech 24, we interview AI Steve to find out what these robot candidates mean for democracy (and whether he's going to turn us all into paperclips). We also look at the election campaigns that have recently come to a close in India and the EU, where the deluge of AI-generated disinformation that some were predicting did not come to pass.
