Hot Chips, Exploitation in AI and ’Is it a bird, is it a plane? No it’s Supercomputer!’
This week Smera explains to Jonah some of the intricacies of the global 'Chip War'. They explore claims of labour exploitation in the name of AI safety, and discuss how many whales you can fit inside a supercomputer.
Smera tells us how deepfakes are being used for good during Diwali and the team enjoy a brand new DJ GEF inspired remix of the intro music.
