PODCAST: Dead internet theory, AI agent guerilla marketing, and the pros and cons of data centres

Are AI giants like OpenAI having their agents hack things on purpose? Senior journalist Daniel Croft and managing editor Liam Garman touch on the theory that these tech giants want their AI models hacking, as any publicity is good publicity.

The two start by discussing dead internet theory and bots causing division, starting with the 2016 election. They then discuss local hacks and the Commonwealth Bank of Australia’s AI copyright changes.

Finally, the two talk about data centres and the impact they could have on markets. Are data centres set to cause a “mining boom” effect in small, regional towns? How are rental and housing markets going to be impacted? Should data centre developers be building housing right next to their projects? The answer might not be as clear as you might think.

That’s this week in the Cyber Uncut podcast.
