| Do you use ChatGPT for your work or study? UU AI-Chat, a free chatbot that's essentially the paid version of ChatGPT running on UU's servers, promises a safer way to do that. Meanwhile, the debate about how AI is affecting democracies is still going strong. DUB spoke with the PhD candidate Jasper Kars, who researches how AI is changing democracy and vice versa. On a lighter note, we're all proud of Marcel van der Heijden, the Biology professor honoured with an Ig Nobel Prize for burying underwear. |
