The IT Week – Radio Radicale – Interview with Stefano Quintarelli
Drones over St. Peter’s
In this episode, Stefano Quintarelli tackles a wide range of strategic issues related to technology and society: from the disturbing possibility of Oracle acquiring OpenAI, to the security risks of LLM models such as ChatGPT and Gemini, to the provocative debut of Albania’s first AI-based “minister”. Ample space is given to the European Data Act and the issue of online content moderation, starting with the assassination of American politician Charles Kirk. Among the most surprising moments is the analysis of the technological event in the Vatican with 3,000 drones flying over St. Peter’s and the comparison with the 2018 experiment in Turin. There is also discussion of the AI “cathedral” model, Californian age verification regulations and the Italian proposal to limit the use of chatbots in cases of suicide risk. With his usual lucidity and irony, Quintarelli offers a compass for interpreting the most critical trends in the contemporary digital ecosystem.
