Description

#101: We've all heard everyone's hot takes in recent months about AI, ChatGPT and other developments in machine learning.
AI has also been a key point in negotiations between the Writers Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers. AND one of the many reasons writers have been on strike since the start of May.
But can AI really write the next Blockbuster hit? 
Today, we explore what artificial intelligence really is, how technology like ChatGPT is changing the game and how this currently does and does NOT impact creative writing jobs.  
Guests: Meredith Broussard, data journalism professor at New York University; Mike Ananny, associate professor of communication and journalism at University of Southern California

How to L.A. aims to drop a little knowledge about ALL the things that affect the people of Los Angeles, whether that’s something that makes our city great (tacos!) or something that we need to work on, like the alarming number of traffic collisions. We serve the curious Angeleno who wants to better connect with our city, discover the new, navigate the confusing and even drive some change along the way.  Support for this podcast is made possible by Gordon and Dona Crawford, who believe that quality journalism makes Los Angeles a better place to live. This program is made possible in part by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, a private corporation funded by the American people.
