Sweet Dreams & the Elusive Nature of Sleep: How a Good Night's Rest Benefits Physical and Mental Health  If you're like us and have ever stared at the ceiling at 2 a.m. begging your body to go back to sleep,  this episode is for you. We're joined by Rachel Baumel, founder and CEO of Sleep Again Pillows, and author, songwriter and podcast host, Carrie Rowan, to unpack the elusive nature of sleep and why quality rest is one of the most powerful tools we have for physical and mental well-being. Sweet dreams aren't just a luxury—they're a necessity. Carrie Rowan, dubbed by her clients as the Professor of Happiness & Joy, is a transformational edutainer/speaker, a mindset strategist, award-winning singer/songwriter, and best-selling author. Blending the art of music with neuroscience, she inspires audiences to transcend limiting narratives and embrace joy as life's new anthem. Radio Show/Podcast Host of Look for the Good, with over 300k listeners, Carrie's work has been featured on CBS and NBC. After a decade-long corporate career, she now shines as a beacon of empowerment and joy in the personal development world. Rachel Baumel was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2017 and underwent four surgeries for breast cancer and ovary removal the next year. Following her double mastectomy, she created a pillow system to make herself more comfortable while sleeping on her back. She had to find pillows and put them together to make a comfy and cozy cocoon. Her husband called it the "life raft.” After lending her pillow system out to other women following their surgeries, she saw how others could benefit.  She and Kate Devlin founded Sleep Again Pillows in 2020 and have now helped thousands of people sleep and heal following surgery.   Find Yonni & Heather here https://www.herhealthcompass.com/

What happens when AI gets it wrong? After a backlash over the misuse of Elon Musk's AI tool Grok, new restrictions have been imposed on editing images of real people. Is this a sign that AI regulation is lagging, and who should be in charge – governments or Silicon Valley? This week, Danny and Katie are joined by AI computer scientist Kate Devlin from King's College London to discuss why this moment could be a turning point for global AI rules.Image: Getty Hosted on Acast.

Andrew Copson speaks to a leading voice in human-technology interaction, Dr Kate Devlin, about becoming the unexpected 'face of sex robots' and why our fascination with artificial companions reveals more about us than the machines. Kate discusses repeating patterns of human fear and adaptation in the face of new technology, the critical ethical challenges of AI – from algorithmic bias impacting facial recognition to the darker side of its supply chain – as well as the need for value-driven and human-centric AI development. This episode was recorded in April 2024.   What I Believe was the title of two separate essays by the philosopher Bertrand Russell and the philosopher EM Forster in the early 20th century. These two humanists set out their approach to life, their fundamental worldview, in a way that was accessible to all. In this podcast, Chief Executive of Humanists UK, Andrew Copson, speaks to humanists today to understand more about what they believe, to understand more about the values, convictions, and opinions they live by. Humanists UK is the national charity working on behalf of non religious people to advance free thinking and promote a tolerant society.

Jennifer Walshe is one of the coolest people we know. Her artistic work and thought has broken our brains for years, leaving us shipwrecked in its torrential waves of reference and irony and joy and conceptual viscera.We talk about her recent piece for the Unsound Dispatch, 13 Ways of Looking at AI, Art & Music — a series of vignettes that in their totality assemble into one of the most coherent accountings of what it is we're all experiencing.Some references from the ep:Listen to Things Know Things on RTÉ Lyric FM. Hopefully you're aware of the music duo Matmos — Jennifer references this record in the context of discussing conceptual work. Jennifer also speaks often of her close collaborator Jon Leidecker (Wobbly), who has a few absolutely killer sets with Matmos, including this one.You can interact with Walshe's Text Score Dataset here.We continue to enjoy references to Holly Herndon and Mat Dryhurst's Have I Been Trained (https://haveibeentrained.com/), a way to search for your (or anyone's) work in large, public, AI training datasets.Two movies everyone should see: Catfish the Movie and HER. (We'd also recommend Catfish the TV show, of course).Jennifer mentions the computer scientist Kate Devlin's work, especially “Turned On: Science, Sex and Robots.”If you haven't googled a picture of Paro the Therapy Seal, do it.Jennifer's record “A Late Anthology of Early Music Vol. 1: Ancient to Renaissance” is a top lifetime record as far as we both are concerned. Check out track 16 for that Palestrina. It's CRAZY. To wrap it up, check out Ted Gioia's Substack and Bruce Sterling's writing (the concept Walshe references is "Dark Euphoria").

It's the fantasy we revisit obsessively in movies and TV from Her to Humans to Blade Runner to, well, A.I. Artificial Intelligence. Could a thinking machine develop a personality sufficiently human-like that we could share a relationship with it? Could an A.I. become our friend or even our lover? We're social animals, wired to understand the world through personal interactions. What does that mean when it comes to A.I.? Simple Chatbot apps can help people to cope with loneliness, but do the technical limitations mean it can only ever be a one-way relationship? Will Siri and Alexa ever evolve into something you want to share a pint and a laugh with? Dr Kate Devlin joins Luke Turner to share cutting-edge research on whether AI will ever be more than a digital diary to hold our innermost thoughts and feelings.

Chloé Locatelli is a PhD candidate in the Digital Humanities department at King's College London. She completed her Gender Studies' Masters with the Erasmus+ Programme at Universidad de Granada and University of Bologna. Her doctoral research looks at constructions of femininity in sextech and their posthuman potential. She is interested in sextech, ‘sex robots', affinity with digital characters and other places where sex, intimacy and digital technologies meet – topics she also covers as a contributor to Futureofsex.net. Chloé has also produced several academic publications. Her latest contribution for Springer's Maschinenliebe (2021), co-authored with Dr Kate Devlin, explores the emphasis on intimacy in sex robot marketing.  In this episode we explore what we can learn about ourselves by looking at sextech and the way it is marketed. Dig into Locatelli's incredible research: “Digital Femininities and the Ethics of Sextech” ‘Sex Robots': Gender, Desire, and Embodiment in Posthuman Sextech ‘Rethinking Sex Robots

Brian and Robin (the real ones) are joined by mathematician Prof Hannah Fry, compute scientist Dr Kate Devlin and comedian Rufus Hound to discuss pros and cons of AI. Just how intelligent is the most intelligent AI? Will our phones soon be smarter than us – will we fail a Turing test while our phone passes it? Will we have AI therapists, doctors, lawyers, carers or even politicians? How will the increasing ubiquity of AI systems change our society and our relationships with each other? Could radio presenters of hit science/comedy shows soon be replaced with wittier, smarter AI versions that know more about particle physics... surely not! New episodes released Wednesdays.

Olympic champion Dame Kelly Holmes spoke publicly about her sexuality for the first time last year. Her new memoir, Unique, details how serving in the military in the late 1980s - when it was illegal to be gay in the military – was a major factor in contributing to her decades-long silence. She joins us to speak about her experience. After a reshuffle that left the government with no women in the “big four” offices of state, we speak to Justice Secretary Alex Chalk about the impact of the reshuffle as well as sentencing reforms which will affect women. From Nefertiti to Amy Winehouse, what is the personal and political power of eyeliner? We discuss with Zahra Hankir, author of Eyeliner: A Cultural History. Tish Murtha is a celebrated photographer whose images of working-class life in North East England can be found in the National Portrait Gallery and Tate Britain. But in her lifetime, Murtha struggled to find work of any kind. Now her daughter, Ella, has made a film about Murtha's life and work. We speak to Ella and producer of the documentary, Jen Corcoran. How is our interaction with AI shifting our concepts of intimacy and sexuality as humans? We discuss with Kate Devlin, Reader in Artificial Intelligence & Society at King's College London, and to Trudy Barber, Senior Lecturer at Portsmouth University in Media Studies. In April 2020, Debenhams in Ireland closed all 11 of its stores, informing its staff they had been let go in the process. What ensued were pickets and protests across Ireland that lasted for 406 days. As a new film is released on the subject, we're joined by two women who were involved, Carol Ann Bridgeman and Jane Crowe.

Dr. Kate Devlin: Global Artificial Intelligence Expert - Is Sex With AI Robots Inevitable?  In this, the second episode of the Love is not a List Podcast, award-winning matchmaker Gillian McCallum, meets the top computer scientist Dr. Kate Devlin, Reader in Artificial Intelligence & Society in the Department of Digital Humanities at King's College London.  Dr. Devlin's research is in the fields of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), investigating how people interact with and react to technology in order to understand how emerging and future technologies will affect us and the society in which we live.  She is also author of the bestselling book - Turned On, looking at the intersection between sex and technology. She is at the vanguard of AI - the harnessing of which results in changing the way we interact not only with one another, but with the technology itself.   In this exciting episode, Dr. Devlin discusses the way in which technology can be utilised to enhance both sex and intimacy, in order to enrich our lives. So is artificial intelligence something to be worried about? Is it really going to “steal our jobs” or worse, be a replacement for us in the bedroom too?  Dr. Devlin's groundbreaking work has led to her authoring the exceptional book, "Turned On: Science, Sex, and Robots," which provides insight into the world of sex tech.  We explore the conversation around whether the hyper-femininity of current sex robots raises the question of whether women would prefer a more diverse and inclusive representation. Or indeed, whether that is something men would prefer too. And what of the female choice in sex robot? Would we wish to have a sexual relationship with something or someone that takes a different form?   And what does it mean if you can pick your perfect romantic partner, even if they aren't human? Would people prefer to date their idea of perfect? Or is it better to put up with human foibles, in order to date someone real? Has society evolved to the point where the demands of dating mean people are no longer willing to compromise on real, human people and romantic relationships? The interview also explores the ethical concerns surrounding AI and human-robot relationships. While technology has the potential for positive advances, it also raises questions about privacy, exploitation, and biassed decision-making. Regarding the future of AI, Dr. Devlin points out that we are far from creating sentient machines. However, she highlights the potential benefits of AI in fields such as medicine, agriculture, disaster rescue, and education. In the realm of sex tech, Dr. Devlin discusses innovative ideas from hackathons she organised, showcasing inclusive and sensual designs. She emphasises the importance of touch and sensory experiences in arousal and emotional intimacy. The interview concludes with a discussion about posthumous digital twins and the potential role AI can play in grief and mourning. To stay updated with Dr. Kate Devlin's work and insights, her book, "Turned On: Science, Sex, and Robots," is recommended for readers interested in exploring the intersection of AI and human relationships.

Irina and Michelle welcome international sex robots expert Dr. Kate Devlin, who explains the current state of technology and her views on the moral panic surrounding parasocial relationships with robots. Kate believes that most of people's fears about sex robots or AI replacing human relationships are overblown in a world in which even carrying around and finding a place to store a robot (the closet?) are challenges. In the second half of the episode, Kate also shares about her personal life, be it her search for balance with bipolar disorder, her polyamorous and dating app-related experiences, or the loving relationship with her younger (second) husband she found on Twitter.

Can Richard finally prove to his wife that having sex with a robot does not count as cheating? How far away are we from creating something that looks like Gemma Chan in Humans? Are robots more likely to be companions than full-time lovers? Will they rise up and kill us or fuck us to death? Should we be thinking of more interesting possibilities than humanoid sex robots and can Kate make Richard's time travel virtual reality dreams come true?Get the book here - https://www.waterstones.com/book/turned-on/kate-devlin/9781472950901SUPPORT THE SHOW!Watch our TWITCH CHANNELSee extra content at our WEBSITE Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/rhlstp.

Araştırmacılar İngiltere'den 29, Japonya'dan 36 yapay zekâ uzmanına sorular sordu. Sorular yapay zekânın gelecekteki ev işlerine etkisi hakkındaydı. Yapay zekâ uzmanlarına göre, 10 yıl içinde ev işlerinin yüzde 39'unu robotlar yapacak. Uzmanlar, otomasyondan en fazla etkilenecek işin market alışverişi olacağını tahmin ediyor. Teknoloji, market alışverişine harcadığımız zamanı yüzde 60 azaltacak. Genç ve yaşlı kişilerin bakımı ise otomasyondan en az etkilenecek iş. Örneğin, çocuk bakımının yalnızca yüzde 28'i otomatikleşecek. Araştırma takımından Dr. Kate Devlin'e göre, teknoloji insanların yerini almayacak. Teknoloji insanlara yardım edecek. Çünkü bütün işleri tek başına yapabilen bir robot yapmak zor ve pahalı. Bunun yerine, insanlara yardım eden robotlar yapmak daha mantıklı. Araştırmanın başka bir sonucu, ev işlerine harcadığımız zaman hakkında. İngiltere'de erkekler, İngiltere'deki kadınların yarısı kadar ev işi yapıyor. Japonya'daki erkekler ise, Japonya'daki kadınların beşte biri kadar ev işi yapıyor. Yani kadınlar daha çok ev işi yapıyorlar. Bu durum kadınların gelirlerini ve birikimlerini olumsuz etkiliyor. Bu nedenle, ev işlerinde otomasyon cinsiyet eşitliğine katkı yapabilir. Dinlediğiniz için teşekkürler! Lütfen bu bölümü Türkçe öğrenen diğer kişilerle de paylaşın!
