We acknowledge and respect the Traditional Owners of lands across Australia, their Elders, Ancestors, cultures and heritage, and recognise the continuing sovereignties of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Nations.
We respectfully acknowledge the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation, who are the Traditional Owners of the land on which the ACTF is based and pay our respect to their Elders past and present.
We are honoured to have the opportunity to learn from the oldest cultural storytellers in the world and seek to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander practitioners to share their rich culture and perspectives with children in Australia and around the world via stories on screen.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that this website may contain images, voices or names of deceased persons in photographs, film, audio recordings or text.
Learning Intentions
Review the interview with script producer Jessica Paine to explore the morality question, is Artificial Intelligence (AI) good or bad?
As a writing task or class discussion, brainstorm how AI might reference us - human beings – in its outputs. It is common to come across AI that borrows from human forms. For example, chatbots used in a customer service role on a website often show a person’s photograph as a profile picture and display a human name.
Consider how and why you believe AI is given human characteristics. Then, list 3-5 impacts this may have when we engage with AI.
Cat realises that the culprit behind the phone hack wasn’t a person, but AI: Hermes Artificial Neurotech Collection (HANC). HANC is the source of the data leak, using a large language model to communicate with the spoken word.
Document the capabilities of HANC to define what type of AI this technology is.
Then, reference the infographic below to categorise what type of AI HANC is.
Note
AI in The PM’s Daughter is speculative (Science Fiction), which goes beyond capabilities in the current day. Experts place our current development stage in the ‘Narrow AI’ band.
A quick guide to AI. Infographic by Erica Southgate PhD, Karen Blackmore PhD, Stephanie Pieschl PhD, and Susan Grimes PhD.
