In episode 84 of The AI Fix, Graham and Mark stare straight into the digital abyss and ask the most important question of our age: “Is AI just a hungry ghost trapped in a jar?” Also this week, we explore how a shadowy group of disgruntled insiders trying to destroy AI by poisoning its training data, how “vibe-coding” has stopped being a joke with even Linus Torvalds joining in, how Google’s AI health advice could have endangered lives, and why simply asking an AI the same question twice can turn it from clueless to near-omniscient. Oh, and AI has managed to crack some famously unsolved maths problems in minutes, and Grok gains access to all of the Pentagon’s networks? What could possibly go wrong? All this and much more is discussed in the latest edition of “The AI Fix” podcast by Graham Cluley and Mark Stockley.
