Duration: 60 minutes
2023 was unquestionably the year of AI, with Chat GPT exploding on the scene before any of the ethical questions surrounding its existence were answered. Looking to an alarming future and the atavistic prejudices of the past, Tracey Spicer confronts this brave new world – and asks us to consider, very seriously, what the hell we think we’re doing.
