It may seem like the rise of artificial intelligence, and
increasingly powerful large language models you may have heard
of, is moving really fast… and it IS.
But what’s coming next is when we enter synthetic relationships
with AI that could come to feel just as real and important as our
human relationships... And perhaps even more so.
In this episode of Your Undivided Attention, Tristan and Aza
reach beyond the moment to talk about this powerful new AI, and
the new paradigm of humanity and computation we’re about to
enter.
This is a structural revolution that affects way more than text,
art, or even Google search. There are huge benefits to humanity,
and we’ll discuss some of those. But we also see that as
companies race to develop the best synthetic relationships, we
are setting ourselves up for a new generation of harms made
exponentially worse by AI’s power to predict, mimic and persuade.
It’s obvious we need ways to steward these tools ethically. So
Tristan and Aza also share their ideas for creating a framework
for AIs that will help humans become MORE humane, not less.
