ChatGPT, Inflation, and Dave
The Reserve Bank is showing no signs of ending its cycle of rate hikes just yet, despite pressure and upbeat talk from our politicians. But are the wrong people being penalised by the rises? Is this the best way to tackle inflation? Are we running headlong into a recession?
Meanwhile, tensions are rising between the US and China over the shooting down of a spy balloon. As warfare becomes ever more sophisticated – will artificial intelligence become the primary weapon in a country's arsenal? The AUKUS agreement includes a focus on AI, but what does this mean for Australia?
Also how much do you know about ChatGPT - the AI chatbot that can have human-like conversations, answer questions and help write essays or code. Some schools have banned the technology while others are embracing it. But with Google and Microsoft setting up their own versions, how realistic is a ban? How can we unlock its potential while managing the dangers?
All this plus the news of the week.

Countdown
Countdown begins with a suspicious murder in broad daylight, leading Los Angeles Police Department officer Mark Meachum to be recruited to a secret task force of undercover agents from all branches of law enforcement that will investigate the death.

The Price is Right
The Price is Right, originally hosted by Bob Barker until 2007 and Drew Carey thereafter -- features a wide variety of games and contests with the same basic challenge: Guess the prices of everyday (or not-quite-everyday) retail items. Four contestants, all of whom are seated in one of the wildest audiences in daytime game-show history, are called to the stage to play a preliminary pricing round. That winner joins the host on stage for one of more than 70 different pricing games. After three such games, the contestants spin a big wheel -- hoping to get as close to $1 as possible -- in the "Showcase Showdown". The two highest winners of that round advance to the final, where prizes could be cars or roomsful of furniture. A trio of models presents the prizes.
