Podcast: Google's AI is said to have feelings - are we threatened by Skynet?
Google's AI has reportedly lawyered up and is said to want to go all the way to the Supreme Court. Has it now become a coon? And who owns it anyway? We tell you what to make of the headline. Plus, a trip back to the 1980s with "Top Gun" and "Turtles."
Last week we had already discussed LaMDA, Google's chatbot with artificial intelligence. It reportedly cost an employee his job because he claimed LaMDA had developed a consciousness. Now the employee is going even further: the AI apparently wants to sue its creators: LaMDA is threatening to sue! Is the chatbot even allowed to do that? Is it really capable of human emotions? And what questions do artificial intelligences still pose for us? That's today's main topic.
We also talk about the possible end of binge-watching on Netflix and about a Lego brick that runs the 1990s shooter "Doom".
Going even further back in time is "Top Gun: Maverick," the sequel to the 1980s cult film. Just so you know: Yes, there is a volleyball counterpart! "Turtles: Shredders Revenge" isn't stingy with references to the arcade machine in 1980s Rimini, Italy, either. And if you listened to the podcast, [here[(https://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/) you can find the browser game "Universal Paperclips".

When I flew the family nest over 15 years ago, I suddenly had to cook for myself. But it wasn’t long until this necessity became a virtue. Today, rattling those pots and pans is a fundamental part of my life. I’m a true foodie and devour everything from junk food to star-awarded cuisine. Literally. I eat way too fast.
