The Tech Stories That Should Have Everyone Asking Questions (S5) S34

from The JMOR Tech Talk Show (Podcast) · host thejmortechtalkshow

What happens when the technology we depend on starts raising more questions than answers? This week on The JMOR Tech Talk Show, we're looking at 14 stories that could change how you think about AI, cybersecurity, social media, privacy, jobs, transportation, and even the devices inside your home. Could Myspace actually make a comeback after disappearing from the center of social media? Meanwhile, Meta has been hit with a $942 million wake up call involving allegations about harm to young users. Cybersecurity gets personal when hackers don't break through sophisticated defenses but simply trick employees, as Levi's discovered. Even more concerning, attackers are reportedly calling workers while pretending to be their company's IT department. And that router protecting your network? Researchers say certain models could contain a built in backdoor. Then AI takes center stage. OpenAI has faced allegations involving hiring practices, while more than 1,000 technology workers are asking America to be prepared to slow advanced AI development. A school district's planned $60,000 humanoid robot sparked controversy, and OpenAI says an upcoming model could potentially reach a critical level of cybersecurity capability. But here's an even bigger question: What happens when autonomous AI breaks the law? Who is responsible? We're also looking at lithium ion battery dangers aboard aircraft, technology that could tell you when to drink water, robot dogs replacing some human security work, and a massive $15 billion AI data center project raising questions about water, wildlife, and how much infrastructure AI should consume. Fourteen stories. Fourteen questions. And technology isn't waiting for us to figure out the answers. Join me for The Tech Stories That Should Have Everyone Asking Questions (S5) S34 on The JMOR Tech Talk Show. #JMORTechTalkShow #JohnCMorley #Technology #ArtificialIntelligence #Cybersecurity
