Tech Currents Podcast: AI, Copyright & The Future of Work – Tee Morris Interview, Part 2

Dive deep into the evolving world of AI, tech ethics, and the “Facebooking” of LinkedIn in Part 2 of our exclusive interview with Tee Morris on the Tech Currents podcast, hosted by Sam Cavaliere and Ron Melanson.

In this compelling conclusion, Tee Morris, a pioneer in podcasting, paranormal investigator, author, engineer, and AI developer, offers sharp insights into pressing technology challenges:

  • AI Utilization & Authors’ Copyrights: The discussion confronts the thorny challenge of establishing fair payment mechanisms for authors whose works are used to train AI models. Morris highlights issues like Harper Collins selling non-fiction titles for AI training without author negotiation.
  • Protecting AI-Generated Art: Tee Morris expresses strong opinions against granting copyright protection to AI-generated art, suggesting it be termed “computer rendered artistic product”. He cites the disastrous Willy Wonka experience as an example of AI art failures.
  • Ethical Implications of AI: Explore AI’s impact on job markets (actors, graphic artists, job applicants), ethical concerns in healthcare decision-making, and the critical need for “clearbox technology”.
  • Current Technology Trends: A critical look at the societal expectation for instant, often rushed and buggy, software updates (“fix it in post”) and a perceived loss of respect for technology, exemplified by issues like the CrowdStrike incident and problematic vehicle software updates.
  • The “De-evolution of LinkedIn”: A candid critique of LinkedIn’s shift from a professional networking tool to a platform increasingly resembling “Facebooking”, plagued by scam artists, excessive motivational content, and a lack of moderation.
