Welcome to our episode on the latest AI news. Did you know that artificial intelligence can now enable faster detection of substance use disorder? This breakthrough has the potential to revolutionize healthcare.
That's right. AI is being used to analyze data and identify patterns that may indicate substance use disorder. This can help healthcare professionals provide early intervention and treatment.
But AI is not just transforming healthcare. It's also having a significant impact on the job market. Recent layoffs at Amazon and other firms have raised questions about the role of AI in the workforce.
While AI has automated some jobs, it's also created new opportunities for employment. The key is to ensure that workers have the skills they need to work alongside AI systems.
Speaking of skills, the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater has just launched a new major in artificial intelligence. This is a great example of how education is adapting to the changing job market.
And it's not just about education. The development of AI is also advancing rapidly. OpenAI has just launched a new agentic coding model, which has the potential to accelerate the capabilities of Codex, its agentic coding tool.
But as AI becomes more advanced, we're also seeing a backlash against its development. The retirement of GPT-4o has shown how attached people can become to AI companions.
Yes, it's a reminder that AI is not just a tool, but also a presence in our lives. As we move forward, we need to consider the ethical implications of AI development and ensure that it aligns with human values.
