Duration: 60 minutes
From the trickery of the Mechanical Turk to the mimicry of ChatGPT, machines have been fooling us for centuries – but now more than ever before, it feels easy to believe in their sentience. To launch Griffith Review 80: Creation Stories, Toby Walsh, Chief Scientist at UNSW.ai, talks to Antony Funnell about what our increasingly complex interactions with AI mean for the future of humanity. In celebration of Griffith Review’s eightieth edition and twentieth anniversary, Creation Stories travels through time and space to explore the many tales of who we are and where we might be headed. Supported by Griffith Review.
