Technology and Artificial Intelligence in work and society w/ Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Information and Technology at Monash University in Melbourne, Jathan Sadowski: 26th November, 2024

New technologies have always been announced and marketed as ways to advance society and push humanity forward. This past couple of years the hot new technology seems to be generative AI, which from its inception now sees use across almost every sector. From digital marketing to google to facebook, no part of the internet seems exempt from artificial intelligence.

Wire host Castor spoke to Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Information and Technology in Monash University in Melbourne, Jathan Sadowski, about how new technology, particularly AI, seems to always benefit those on top.
