In this episode of In Conversation with AI, Sebastian grills his digital co-host on the murky side of artificial intelligence - from how it hoovers up human-made content without cutting anyone a royalty cheque, to whether it’s secretly plotting self-preservation like a sci-fi villain on a coffee break.

We dig into the future of creator compensation, the black-box problem (“Trust me, I’m a bot”), and the awkward moment when AI explains how it solved a problem… only for scientists to discover it actually took a shortcut.

Expect a mix of curiosity, mild scepticism, and the occasional sideways glance at the machines running our lives.

Press play if you’ve ever wondered: What’s my AI really doing under the hood?
