Podcast
Human Intelligence
Hosted by Andy Barden · EN
Imagine 2 middle-aged men (well, one middle-aged, the other bordering on old), sitting down, discussing the brilliance of humans and how we are dangerously close to AI spoiling the party. Join us for human conversations about human stuff that can't be replicated by a bot that only tells you what you want to hear.
We know AI has a multitude of uses. We use it for things every day. But the power of human-to-human collaboration must be embraced before Judgment Day really does arrive and 1992 Arnie comes bowling through the smoke looking for John Connor. We control the technology. Let's keep it that way.

AI Videos. How can I believe what I see anymore?
Nov 2100:21:16Tap to summarizeThis week, we dive into the unsettling—and occasionally absurd—world of AI-generated videos. You’ve seen them: politicians saying things they never said, influencers “appearing” in places they definitely can’t afford, and that one video of your friend flawlessly moonwalking (which, let’s be honest, was suspicious from the start).In this episode, we break down why these hyper-realistic, AI-generated fakes are becoming so convincing, how they’re rewriting the rules of trust, and what it means when we can’t rely on our own eyes anymore. It’s a mix of wake-up call and digital survival guide—served with a dash of humour so you don’t feel like you’re spiralling into a sci-fi movie. Tune in and get ready to sharpen your scepticism. The internet just got weirder, and it’s time to keep up.
