Will.i.am is not as worried about AI and artists. He tells Katie Prescott that the \"creatives will be alright,\" but it's \"the assistants, the sales clerks, the lawyers, the accountants\" that we should be concerned about.
As musicians, publishers and Silicon Valley debate over whether AI should be allowed to train on creative work, the Black Eyed Peas musician and tech investor offers a different take. He says music has always borrowed from what came before – from samplers to bass lines and rhymes. So what changes when machines start borrowing too?
Plus, Danny Fortson and Katie discuss Anthropic’s stark new AI advert, Demis Hassabis’s call for an AI watchdog, and whether governments can keep up with the pace of artificial intelligence.
