Episode 255 of the Transatlantic Cable kicks off with discussions around stalkerware, in particular a piece of software that\u2019s been found leaking photos and other personal data on its website. From there, the team discuss a story around the US government tapping travel companies in order to track suspects.<\/p>\n
As we move on, discussions get a tad more ethereal, shall we say. First up is talk around how it might be possible (in the next 10 years or so) to digitally replicate yourself online \u2013 as to why<\/em> you\u2019d want to do this is anybody\u2019s guess. To wrap up, the team discuss a recent (potentially massive) story about a Google engineer who was recently put on paid leave from the company as he believes one of its AI programs has become sentient.<\/p>\n If that\u2019s whet your appetite for more stories like this, be sure to subscribe!<\/p>\n\n
