Professor Chris Berg from RMIT University discusses the transformative potential of AI, likening it to the next industrial revolution. He argues that AI, particularly tools like ChatGPT, can boost white-collar productivity by up to 40%. Governments should cautiously avoid AI regulation to maximise these gains. Berg emphasises AI's bottom-up adoption and its exponential advancements. He also touches on the social implications, including the formation of parasocial relationships with AI and the potential for AI to displace certain jobs. The conversation, with ATA Chief Economist John Humphreys and Economics Explored host Gene Tunny, highlights AI's dual promise of productivity gains and societal challenges.Please email Gene your thoughts on this episode via contact@economicsexplored.com.TimestampsIntroduction to AI and Productivity (0:00)Government's Approach to AI Regulation (3:01)Bottom-Up Technology and Industrial Applications (9:40)Comparisons to Previous Industrial Revolutions (12:04)Social and Economic Implications of AI (16:46)AI and Human Labour (17:15)AI's Role in Public Policy Debates (35:41)Conclusion and Future Prospects (38:35)TakeawaysAI as “Infinite Intelligence” – Berg views AI, particularly LLMs like ChatGPT, as offering effectively infinite intelligence, capable of dramatically transforming productivity.White-Collar Disruption – AI is not just about automating manual labour. It poses a serious threat (and opportunity) for traditionally “smart” jobs like writing, research, and art.Regulatory Caution – While Europe has rushed to regulate AI, Australia hasn't, allowing innovation and productivity gains to take root.Parasocial Relationships with AI – AI companions (e.g., AI-infused toys or assistants) may change human interaction, especially among children and vulnerable populations.Rethinking Migration via Robots – Remote-controlled humanoid robots may one day allow low-skilled workers in developing countries to "work" in advanced economies without leaving home.Links relevant to the conversationATA livestream on 21 August with Chris Berg:https://austaxpayers.substack.com/p/productivity-ideas-with-chris-bergLumo Coffee promotion10% of Lumo Coffee's Seriously Healthy Organic Coffee.Website: https://www.lumocoffee.com/10EXPLOREDPromo code: 10EXPLORED
On Thursday's show: A federal judge on Wednesday temporarily blocked 11 public school districts in Texas' largest metropolitan areas from displaying the Ten Commandments in classrooms as required by a new state law set to take effect Sept. 1. A legal expert joins us to discuss the case and where it goes from here.Also this hour: Sen. Ted Cruz is largely opposed to regulation of AI, while the state is set to be one of a few to implement the first legislation related to the industry. We discuss that dichotomy.Then, Houston native filmmaker Nell Teare discusses some of the lessons she's learned about overcoming the barriers and naysayers to building a creative career. It's a topic she'll discuss Sunday afternoon during the Houston Media Conference.And we learn how school publications like newsletters, zines, and podcasts are giving students ways to take control of their media and better understand how media works.
Phishing Training Effectiveness: A study of over 19,000 employees showed traditional phishing training has limited impact, improving scam detection by just 1.7% over eight months. Despite varied training methods, over 50% of participants fell for at least one phishing email, highlighting persistent user susceptibility and the need for more effective cybersecurity education strategies.Cybersecurity Risks in Modern Cars: Modern connected vehicles are highly vulnerable to cyberattacks. A researcher exploited flaws in a major carmaker's web portal, gaining “national admin” access to dealership data and demonstrating the ability to remotely unlock cars and track their locations using just a name or VIN. This underscores the urgent need for regular vehicle software updates and stronger manufacturer security measures to prevent data breaches and potential vehicle control by malicious actors.Nation-State Cyberattacks on Infrastructure: Nation-state cyberattacks targeting critical infrastructure are escalating. Russian hackers reportedly took control of a Norwegian hydropower dam, releasing water undetected for hours. While no physical damage occurred, such incidents reveal the potential for widespread disruption and chaos, signaling a more aggressive stance by state-sponsored cyber actors and the need for robust infrastructure defenses.AI Regulation in Mental Health Therapy: States like Illinois, Nevada, and Utah are regulating or banning AI in mental health therapy due to safety and privacy concerns. Unregulated AI chatbots risk harmful interactions with vulnerable users and unintended data exposure. New laws require licensed professional oversight and prohibit marketing AI chatbots as standalone therapy tools to protect users.Impact of Surveillance Laws on Privacy Tech: Proposed surveillance laws, like Switzerland's data retention mandates, are pushing privacy-focused tech firms like Proton to relocate infrastructure. Proton is moving its AI chatbot, Lumo, to Germany and considering Norway for other services to uphold its no-logs policy. This reflects the tension between national security and privacy, driving companies to seek jurisdictions with stronger data protection laws.Data Brokers and Privacy Challenges: Data brokers undermine consumer privacy despite laws like California's Consumer Privacy Act. Over 30 brokers were found hiding data deletion instructions from Google search results using specific code, creating barriers for consumers trying to opt out of data collection. This intentional obfuscation frustrates privacy rights and weakens legislative protections.Android pKVM Security Certification: Android's protected Kernel-based Virtual Machine (pKVM) earned SESIP Level 5 certification, the first software security solution for consumer electronics to achieve this standard. Designed to resist sophisticated attackers, pKVM enables secure handling of sensitive tasks like on-device AI processing, setting a new benchmark for consistent, verifiable security across Android devices.VPN Open-Source Code Significance: VP.NET's decision to open-source its Intel SGX enclave code on GitHub enhances transparency in privacy technology. By allowing public verification, users can confirm the code running on servers matches the open-source version, fostering trust and accountability. This move could set a new standard for the VPN and privacy tech industry, encouraging others to prioritize verifiable privacy claims.

Illinois just sent a shockwave through the digital wellness and AI ethics space with the WOPR Act—a new law that stops AI from replacing human therapists or making independent clinical decisions. At a time when therapy chatbots are becoming more advanced, more available, and more human-like than ever, this move forces a question we can't ignore: should your mental health care ever be left entirely to an algorithm? In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, we dig into the heart of the WOPR Act and explore why Illinois is saying “humans only” when it comes to therapy. It's a conversation about patient safety, ethics, and the very definition of care in the age of artificial intelligence. Here's what we cover: How AI therapy tools work, and why they've grown so popular so fast. The risks AI can't see—like micro-expressions, body language, and the unspoken clues only humans can catch. Real-world stories of AI therapy helping people, and the scenarios where it could dangerously miss the mark. Why “better than nothing” isn't always better when it comes to mental health care. The difference between real empathy and simulated empathy, and how it shapes trust. The ethical stakes: when corporate motives meet vulnerable minds. Why Illinois decided to act now—and what it signals for the future of AI in healthcare. Whether you're fascinated by technology, concerned about its limits, or passionate about mental health, this episode offers a thought-provoking look at the intersection of AI, ethics, and human connection.

Your face unlocks your phone, animates your emoji, and verifies your identity but who actually owns the digital rights to your unique features? In this deep dive into biometric data law, we explore the high-stakes legal battles reshaping how technology interacts with our most personal physical characteristics.When Facebook paid $650 million to settle a class action lawsuit over facial recognition, it signaled a seismic shift in how companies must approach biometric data collection. We break down the landmark cases—from White Castle's potential $17 billion fingerprint scanning liability to Clearview AI's global legal troubles for scraping billions of public photos without consent. These aren't just American concerns; we journey from China, where a professor successfully sued a wildlife park over mandatory facial scans, to India's Supreme Court ruling on the world's largest biometric ID system.Beyond privacy concerns, fierce patent wars are erupting over who owns the methods for collecting and using biometric data. Companies battle over facial authentication patents worth billions while "liveness detection" technology becomes crucial in a world of deepfakes and digital impersonation. The stakes couldn't be higher as these technologies become embedded in everything from banking to border control.We untangle the global patchwork of regulations emerging to govern facial recognition, from Illinois' pioneering BIPA law to Europe's strict GDPR protections and China's surprising new limits on private biometric collection. Throughout it all, a clear trend emerges: your face isn't just data, it's your identity, and increasingly, the law recognizes that distinction.Whether you're concerned about your rights, curious about the future of facial recognition, or simply want to understand why your social media filters might be collecting more than just likes, this episode offers essential insights into the legal frameworks shaping our biometric future. Listen now to discover how to protect your digital identity in a world that increasingly wants to scan it.Send us a textSupport the show
While Silicon Valley builds advanced AI models and Beijing integrates them into state power, Washington faces an uncomfortable reality: America's innovation machine might not be enough to win the AI race on its own. The problem isn't our technology—it's our government's ability to deploy it.The White House recently released “America's AI Action Plan,” which aims to change this dynamic, calling for everything from "Manhattan Project-style" coordination to federal AI sandboxes. But with the Trump Administration now moving to implement these initiatives, the question becomes: can American democracy move fast enough to compete with authoritarian efficiency? And should it?Charles Clancy, Chief Technology Officer of MITRE, knows the challenges well. His organization serves as a bridge between government needs and technical solutions, and he's seen firsthand how regulatory fragmentation, procurement bottlenecks, and institutional silos turn America's AI advantages into operational disadvantages. His team also finds that Chinese open-weight models outperform American ones on key benchmarks—a potential warning sign as the U.S. and China compete to proliferate their technology across the globe.Clancy argues the solution is not for the U.S. to become China, but rather to take a uniquely American approach—establish federal frontier labs, moonshot challenges, and market incentives that harness private innovation for public missions. He and FAI's Josh Levine join Evan to explore whether democratic institutions can compete with authoritarian efficiency without sacrificing democratic values. View Mitre's proposals for the White House's plan here, and more of Charle's research here.

Dr. Gillian Hadfield from Johns Hopkins University and Andrew Freedman from Fathom discuss their innovative proposal to govern AI through private regulatory markets, which has been introduced as California's SB 813. Their system would separate democratic goal-setting from technical rule-making by having government bodies articulate safety outcomes while competitive private certifiers develop and enforce detailed standards, with companies receiving liability protection for compliance. The conversation explores how this market-based approach could create a "race to the top" in AI safety standards while remaining agile enough to keep pace with rapid technological development. Key challenges discussed include preventing a race to the bottom among certifiers, liability law interactions, and identifying qualified organizations to serve as effective private regulators.

n this episode, we explore the rise of AI in Hollywood through the lens of actors and artists. We discuss the promise of AI tools—like virtual readers for self-tapes—and how they could free creatives to focus on their craft, but also warn of the risks when AI replaces human storytelling. Our guest stresses the need for diverse ethical oversight in AI development, drawing parallels to how Facebook's unintended global impact stemmed from a lack of diverse perspectives at creation. Learn why we need more “naysayers” guiding AI's creative applications, where to draw the line between useful automation and creative displacement, and how tech-savvy actors can advocate for their future.
