Distilling the Slop

As the world teeters on the brink of whatever comes after globalisation we dive deep into the way AI is transforming film-making with the director of the iconic Australian film Kenny, Clay Jacobson.   Our regular panel of Digital Rights Watch chair Lizzie O’Shea, Health engine CEO Dan Stinton and Per Capita’s Peter Lewis also discuss:

• The theory that the Trump Tariffs were cooked up by a chatbot
• The growing chance that the FTC anti-trust case against Meta is history; and 
• The backlash against Chat GPT’s appropriation of Studio Ghibli’s acclaimed work.
