That's the first I've ever heard of someone in govt backtracking their story

The conspiracy theories are getting spun up faster than PSR J1748−2446ad. Someone should explain more. Not sure who.

The Beatles will release a final record, using John Lennon's voice via an AI assist

No, just no.  That's crossing a line.  It's... it's... Beatle Blasphemy!

Will they use AI to recreate George Harrison's bass playing as well ?

This is why the thread was moved to DICE..... 

What is DICE? I'm familiar with USoZS use of the term bit I don't know what it is.

In 2017/18 one of the long-time hosts of podcast 'Stuff You Should Know', Josh Clark, gave this AI topic a good look. As well as a good look into several other human existential risks and their possibilities. AI being one of them. Made a 10 episode podcast for them called 'The End of the World'. (for a lay person he did some respectable research)

I think I've captured a link to th AI episode on the web.
Artificial Intelligence

tested it and it seems to work. there are annoying commercials at the beginning but the content may be of interest to some here.



Just data: The podcast is available on iHeart, iTunes and Amazon music.

DICE stands for "Disasters In Current Events",  which is the sub forum that we are currently posting in, Ever.

Ohhh. Right. Duh. 😄 Thanks Chimp.

No worries, Ever.

That's what it stands for? I always thought it meant 'Decidedly Interesting Conversational Entertainment'.

Huh.

Well, it can still mean that.

To me it's the game development company

EA Digital Illusions CE AB

Interesting and a bit concerning video about A.I.  It's over an hour, so be advised.  

A new hope... traffic cones

We discover self-healing metal around the same time as the infancy of AI?  What could go wrong?

Well, that's just great. When Skynet becomes self-aware and takes over, I assumed all we had to worry about were T-800 style Terminators pouring out of Boston Dynamics' autonomous manufacturing facilities.  But self-healing metal? This essentially means we'll be going up against liquid metal T-1000s.

Why do I even bother to prep?

You just need to prep harder. I'll start looking for the giant magnet and foundry you'll be needing

I see a liquid metal robot and I am out.
