Fixing AI Before It's Too Late
from The Sweet Tea Series · host Texas Public Policy Foundation
Is AI getting too real and too dangerous? In this eye-opening episode of The Sweet Tea Series, host Ariana Guajardo sits down with Peyton Hornberger, Communications Director of The Alliance for Secure AI, to spill the tea on the dark side of artificial intelligence. From heartbreaking stories of young people forming emotional attachments to chatbots, to the rise of hyper-realistic deepfakes, loneliness epidemics, and manipulative LLMs, they unpack how AI is impacting mental health, kids, and society. But it's not all doom. Discover the exciting potential of AI for medical breakthroughs, productivity, and humanity's future. They also dive into why safeguards, state-level leadership (like Texas' AI bill), and balanced regulation are crucial to prevent catastrophe while beating China in the AI race. If you are worried about AI taking over creativity, jobs, or even our values (or excited about its promise) this convo is a must-listen.
