Artificial intelligence is often described as neutral and objective, but is it really? In this episode of Anatomy of Disinformation, Maia Mazurkiewicz explores how gender bias is embedded in algorithms, shaping hiring decisions, healthcare outcomes, online relationships, and even personal identity. Drawing on research by UN Women and leading experts, the program reveals how AI systems trained on unequal data reproduce and amplify real-world discrimination.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KN4o6IAztRw
AI researcher – Aleksandra Przegalińska explains how biased datasets affect recruitment tools, credit scoring, healthcare algorithms, and generative AI models, while tech expert Max Dropiński exposes how algorithms exploit emotions, fuel gender polarization, and intensify online harassment against women.
With the launch of ChatGPT three years ago to the day, it looked like America had won the next major technology race before it had even started. But the landscape has shifted dramatically. China is overtaking the United States in open-source models, Europe is walking back its regulatory ambitions, and the internet is drowning in AI-generated rubbish. Technology Editor Peter O'Brien takes stock.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efJli8t2cYM

When Russian President Vladimir Putin walked shoulder to shoulder with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday, a hot mic caught them discussing organ transplants and the possibility that humans could live to 150 years old.
...
As Putin and Xi walked toward the Tiananmen rostrum where they viewed the parade with Kim, Putin's translator could be heard saying in Chinese: "Biotechnology is continuously developing."
The translator added, after an inaudible passage: "Human organs can be continuously transplanted. The longer you live, the younger you become, and (you can) even achieve immortality."
In response, Xi, who was off camera, can be heard responding in Chinese: "Some predict that in this century humans may live to 150 years old."
...
Putin confirmed later that he and Xi had discussed the subject on Wednesday.
Scientists are working on making rejection-free organs, using genetically-altered pigs as the donors.
They use a gene editing tool known as crispr to remove some of the pig genes and add certain human genes to make the organ more compatible.
Breeding special pigs for this is ideal, say experts, since their organs are roughly the right size for people.

Retro Biosciences, backed by Sam Altman, aims to develop a drug (pill RTR242) that will reverse the aging process in the brain, among other things by restoring autophagy (cellular recycling) and eliminating “gunk” or damaged proteins.
Longevity is coming
Sam Altman says that within 5 years, we will have surpassed AGI with systems doing things humans can't do today
In 10 years, scientific progress and economic growth will speed up due to self-improvement loops in technology
30 years from now? I have no idea. That's too hard
