ChatGPT, Inflation, and Dave
The Reserve Bank is showing no signs of ending its cycle of rate hikes just yet, despite pressure and upbeat talk from our politicians. But are the wrong people being penalised by the rises? Is this the best way to tackle inflation? Are we running headlong into a recession?
Meanwhile, tensions are rising between the US and China over the shooting down of a spy balloon. As warfare becomes ever more sophisticated – will artificial intelligence become the primary weapon in a country's arsenal? The AUKUS agreement includes a focus on AI, but what does this mean for Australia?
Also how much do you know about ChatGPT - the AI chatbot that can have human-like conversations, answer questions and help write essays or code. Some schools have banned the technology while others are embracing it. But with Google and Microsoft setting up their own versions, how realistic is a ban? How can we unlock its potential while managing the dangers?
All this plus the news of the week.

Doc
Doc centers on the hard-charging, brilliant Dr. Amy Larsen, Chief of Internal and Family Medicine at Westside Hospital in Minneapolis. After a brain injury erases the last eight years of her life, Amy must navigate an unfamiliar world where she has no recollection of patients she's treated, colleagues she's crossed, the soulmate she divorced, the man she now loves and the tragedy that caused her to push everyone away. She can rely only on her estranged 17-year-old daughter, whom she remembers as a 9-year-old, and a handful of devoted friends, as she struggles to continue practicing medicine, despite having lost nearly a decade of knowledge and experience.
