Silicon Zombies Podcast

We all know that conversations matter. But guess what? Conversations have patterns that we can learn. Tune in to SZ BrainWaves on 92.9FM KPCR for episode 145, where we explore the art of meaningful dialogue with conversation designer Daniel Stillman. As an independent design facilitator, Daniel works with executives and organizations to craft collaborative and innovative discussions that drive change. He’s the author of The Paper Airplane Experiment and the 30 Second Elephant—a dive into origami, teamwork, and creativity—and the host of The Conversation Factory podcast, where he unpacks the strategies behind transformative conversations. Join us as we learn how to frame, sustain, and elevate the discussions that shape our lives and work. www.necodex.com

CEO Sundar Pichai just stated that over 25% of new code at Google is generated by artificial intelligence 🤖 And in an age where AI can generate entire novels, paint masterpieces, and even predict the next big scientific breakthrough, who really owns the creative spark? Get ready for Silicon Zombies, where we bring together some of the best brains to demystify emerging tech! In episode 138, "IP in the Age of AI" we navigate the wild world of intellectual property and the ever-blurring lines of ownership and creativity. As AI reshapes the landscape of creation and invention, the big question is: Who really owns what? Our lineup of experts includes Shmuel, who’ll break down the real-world impact (or, as he puts it, “where the rubber hits the road”), David, who’ll lay out the state of copyright in an AI-dominated world, and Tim, who’ll tackle the big questions on ownership of AI-generated works, the role of data as IP, and even patents in fields like molecular biology. We’ll be asking the tough questions you didn’t even know you had about IP in this age of rapid technological change. Who owns content created by AI, and how do we safeguard the massive datasets used to train these models? Should AI models even have patents, and what’s the role of AI in collaborative creations? Whether you’re a creator, entrepreneur, or just curious about the future of IP law, this episode promises a fascinating ride through the ethical and legal twists of AI.
