To the practiced eye, it's still easy to tell the difference between a human crafted piece of written copy and a ChatGPT stock output (for now), however that doesn't mean that the current models can't help you.
Lee and Stu talk human vs. robots, the opportunities and limitations surrounding the current models and why there's only so much you can learn by putting things in your mouth.

Terri and Stu discuss the implications for the next generations if AI becomes part of every day life, the dangers of the commercialisation of education and why you should always listen to your Nan.
