Artificial intelligence is becoming part of everyday life, from the workplace to the way people access information and services.
But as the technology develops, people in Newcastle are weighing up the opportunities against concerns about trust, privacy, and decision-making.

00:00If I thought it was like a really great bit of art and then I found out it was AI,
00:03I'd feel a little bit sickened up myself.
00:05Because I want to feel like I can see the artist's intentions and stuff and like in a piece of
00:12art.
00:13But if I realized I couldn't, I'd feel a bit sort of like, oh, what was all that about then?
00:19I think there are some things it's very useful for.
00:22Just off the top of my head, for example, you might have there are apps that transcribe in real time,
00:27which if you're having a meeting and say there are people who are hard of hearing or maybe English isn't
00:34their first language, something like that's very useful.
00:37Well, I'm quite scared of it. Like I have a friend called Roy who's like a software engineer and he's
00:42programming an AI for lawyers at the moment.
00:44And he told me the other day that like it's now started programming itself and he doesn't really know what's
00:50going on.
00:51No one should be excited about it.
00:53It's I keep trying to catch myself here because I'm going to be very, very rude, but it's it's terrible,
01:00rubbish, nonsense and has no place in the creative industries or many other industries, to be honest.
01:04That kind of sounds like ground zero, almost like that sounds like the point where it starts, that it like
01:12takes over the world.
01:13So at least like if that happens, my friend's going to be OK because it'll come to life and they'll
01:19be like, oh, Papa.
01:21I think sometimes people kind of use it for stuff like as a crutch, like, you know, oh, instead of
01:27doing something, I'll just get, you know, AI to do it.
