Grab a cuppa and settle in for a ripper of an episode on Aussie English! Your host, Pete, is having a fair dinkum yarn about something that’s taking over faster than you can say ‘barbie’ – Artificial Intelligence!

We’re diving deep into an essay Pete cooked up (with a little help from AI itself, no less!) called “Will AI Save Us Or Replace Us?”. It’s not just a dry lecture, mate! We’ll explore how AI is already doing amazing things in medicine, like finding new treatments and even spotting diseases better than doctors. We’ll also unpack how it’s changing the way we work, learn, and even look after our environment.

But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows, eh? We’ll also chew the fat about the trickier bits, like AI potentially taking our jobs, making the rich richer, and even messing with our privacy and what we consider ‘truth’. And yeah, we’ll even touch on the really wild stuff, like AI designing weapons and the big question of whether it could ever go rogue.

Pete reckons it’s up to us to make sure AI works for humanity, not the other way around. So, if you’re keen to get your head around this massive topic, listen to this episode. You won’t want to miss it!
