What's AI? - Understanding Artificial Intelligence with Alex Flutur

AI is becoming part of our everyday lives, sometimes in ways we do not even notice. But what makes AI different from previous technologies, and we are prepared for how quickly it is developing? 

In this AI.Proof interview, we are glad to welcome Alex Flutur as he shares his perspective on the development, potential and risks of AI. Alex reflects on how AI has evolved and why its versatility makes it particularly transformative. 

The conversation explores how AI-powered systems can influence everyday choices, the risks of placing too much trust in generative AI systems (which can present incorrect information with convincing confidence), the increasing presence of AI-generated content online, and concerns surrounded consumer profiling and personalised recommendations. 

Finally we will see Alex reflection on AI ethics and alignment, highlighting the shared responsibility of government, civil society, companies and individuals to determine how AI should be developed and used.

What's AI? - Perspectives on Artificial Intelligence with Olivia Heslingaideo Testimonial

AI is shaped by human knowledge, values, decisions and biases. As these technologies become increasingly integrated into our societies, understanding AI also means examining the systems, and the people, behind it. 

In this AI.Proof video testimonial, Olivia Heslinga, business consultant and founder of AI for Good Denmark, reflects on the relationship between AI and society. She describes generative AI and large language models as a mirror of our collective digital knowledge, containing human interactions, opinions, science, art and other attempts to understand the world around us. 

The testimonial highlights dimensions of AI that can easily be overlooked (environmental footprint, human labour involved in support, resources to develop and operate the systems, potential cognitive consequences…). For Olivia, these questions make AI literacy particularly important for younger generations. Understanding how AI systems work, recognising their biases and knowledge gaps, questioning their outputs can help young people interact with these technology while maintaining  their own critical thinking, social skills and personal values. 

Her message ultimately encourages us to approach AI consciously: before delegating a task to AI, consider what knowledge, skill or human interaction may be outsourced in the process. 

The future of AI and humanity: what lies ahead? With Ivan Kolisnyk

AI is making information and everyday tasks increasingly accessible, but as we become more reliant on these technologies, what should remain in human hands? 

In this AI.Proof video testimonial, Ivan Kolisnyk reflects on his personal experience with AI and the role he believes it could play in our future. From preparing speeches and formal communication to translation, recommendations and research, Ivan explains how AI has already become a practical tool in both professional and personal contexts. At the same time, convenience comes with risks. Ivan raises concerns about becoming overly dependent on AI for research and learning, particularly if easy access to generated answers reduces our motivation to investigate information and develop skills independently. 

The testimonial also explores border questions surrounding AI regulation, the use of human-created content to train AI systems, the reliability of AI-generated information and the ways these technologies could influence society and public debate. Looking towards the coming years, Ivan expects AI to become increasingly capable and integrated into everyday life. His reflections therefore highlight an important challenge: as AI becomes more convenient and powerful, how can we benefit from it without losing our ability to research, think and make decisions for ourselves?
