That's a Great Question (with Stewart Lee in Laugharne)
About this episode
Stewart Lee joins Armando Iannucci to discuss AI, military-grade technology, and the Metaverse in a comedic setting.
Stewart Lee joins Armando at the Millennium Hall in Laugharne. Is AI too sycophantic? Should we worry about how military-grade AI is being sold in start-up jargon? Let's ask the best AI there is, Armando Iannucci. In another episode in front of an audience, Armando and Stewart treat us to a dramatic reading of a Chat GPT interaction. We also hear whether the Metaverse is an unwelcome template for AI companies, and why Stewart admires the boffins who make sex robots. Got a strong message for Armando?
