During a discussion with Google Bard, we inquired about the challenges individuals are currently confronting in 2023. Among the issues it highlighted were the persisting COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, the proliferation of misinformation and disinformation, the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and its consequences, and the mental health crisis. Consequently, we raised the question with Bard: Is Artificial Intelligence itself not one of the contemporary issues affecting people today? In the course of our dialogue, Google Bard acknowledged that there is indeed a concern regarding the utilization of artificial intelligence, particularly in ways that harm workers, and it emphasized the necessity for governmental regulation in this domain. Here’s our full interview with Google Bard on the impact of AI on the job market.

Jou 31 jiyè 2023, yon gwo nouvèl souke laprès ann Ayiti ak aletranje, yon tranblemanntè medyatik. Kèk minit avan 4è, yon vwa byen tris nan Radyo Kiskeya te ranmase kouraj li pou anonse lanmò Lilyàn Pyè-Pòl (Lili).
