On this edition of the program, a look at the landmark decision by an Australian Federal court that ruled Artificial Intelligence or AI systems can legally be recognised as an inventor in patent applications. While this may not sound like a big deal it’s a ground-breaking precedent as it challenges a fundamental assumption in the law that only human beings can be inventors. Join host Whitney Fitzsimmons as she discusses this with Ryan Abbott Author of The Reasonable Robot who is also the Attorney at the centre of this case.
Whitney also analyses the ethical questions associated with AI and the potential unintended consequences with Dr Catriona Wallace, CEO of the Ethical AI Advisory Group. And she looks at the intersection between AI and business with KPMG Futures, Partner in Charge, James Mabbott.
