Explore the potential and risks of generative AI in this thought-provoking lecture by Dr Mhairi Aitken, Ethics Fellow at The Alan Turing Institute. Delve into the revolutionary capabilities of generative AI in areas such as image and video synthesis, text and speech generation, and music composition. Examine the growing concerns surrounding its potential misuse, particularly in disinformation campaigns, deepfakes, and online harassment. Consider whether the rapid development of generative AI models is outpacing regulatory efforts and our ability to ensure responsible use. Gain insights into the implications for online and offline safety and discuss potential strategies for mitigating these risks. Learn from Dr Aitken's expertise as a Sociologist studying the social and ethical dimensions of digital innovation, particularly in relation to data and AI usage. This lecture is part of the "How AI broke the internet" series, organized in collaboration with The Royal Institution, which explores various aspects of large-language models and generative AI in the public eye.
