Episode Summary:
In this episode, we discussed the recent banking crisis and credit defaults, as well as the spread of contagion. We then shifted the conversation to the advancements in artificial intelligence, particularly GPT-4 and AI-powered Microsoft 365.
We discussed the potential benefits and drawbacks of these developments, including the potential for AI to replace human jobs. We also touched on the topic of "AI fear" and the potential harm that AI could cause if not regulated properly. Lastly, we discussed the potential monopolistic situation that could arise with the dominance of Google and Microsoft in the AI space.
