012 - A.I and ChatGPT - The Tech behind the 'Hype'

In this episode, we're peeling back the layers of AI, focusing on the tech behind the 'Hype,' and exploring the fascinating landscape of what it means to be human when we're sharing the digital stage with AI, particularly our good old friend, ChatGPT.

I wanted to discuss topics like:

🧑‍💻 What Makes Us Human?
Is there a distinct line between humans and machines, or is it all just a big blur? We'll tackle this question and explore how AI challenges our perceptions of humanity and the boundaries of our existence in the digital age.

🧠 What is Consciousness?
We start our journey by probing the age-old question: What is consciousness, and can machines ever truly possess it? We'll delve into the tantalizing possibility of artificial consciousness. Buckle up, it's going to get a bit philosophical!

💻 The Tech Behind ChatGPT
Ever wondered what's going on behind the screens of ChatGPT? I'll take you through the technical intricacies of how this AI marvel works, from natural language processing to deep learning architectures.

🔌 AI and Our Digital Society
Our chat wouldn't be complete without discussing the societal implications. We'll discuss the impact of AI, from ethics and privacy to the potential for a harmonious coexistence between humans and AI.

Also as I promised, there are few of the books I referred and thought worth sharing:

Genius Makers - Cade Metz
What Computers Still Can’t Do - Hubert Dreyfus
The Alignment Problem - Brian Christian
The Road to Conscious Machines - Michael Wooldridge

Get ready to have your mind twisted, expanded, and maybe even a little glitched. Let's dig deep into the tech that's shaking our world!
