Transcript — Listening Part 2 — Audio
Generative AI is everywhere.
Even if you haven't used it yourself, you might have heard about it or come across social media posts using it.
Pictures of how friends might look in 20 years time or as an action figure doll.
So what is Gen AI?
In a nutshell, generative artificial intelligence is a computer technology capable of creating text, images, audio and videos incredibly quickly.
And it's not just used for fun.
Every day, hundreds of millions of people use Gen AI to write emails, develop ideas and even solve scientific challenges.
You access generative AI through a chatbot.
It's like having a conversation.
Every time you ask an AI chatbot a question or prompt it to perform a task, it predicts what you would like as a response based on analysing millions and millions of pieces of data that it's already catalogued.
You can even get it to answer with a particular tone for example, chatty, funny or deadly serious.
Or if you're using audio, a particular voice.
It's getting so good at this.
It can almost feel like chatting to a person.
Chatbots like Copilot or ChatGPT can be used as assistants that can help with a range of tasks.
Everything from prioritising your to-do list to planning your next holiday or drafting a best man speech.
So how do you get started with an AI chatbot?
Getting set up with an account is pretty straightforward.
If your school or employer already has guidelines, follow their instructions.
Once you're set up, start asking it questions and see how it responds.
It's easy to be impressed when it rewrites your CV or plans a round the world trip for you in seconds.
But before you start relying on it, you need to understand a few key things.
Firstly, the responses you get can look and sound very convincing.
But that doesn't mean they're right, or that the information in them is true.
Known as AI hallucinations, there have been cases where chatbots have advised users to add glue to pizza, eat rocks, or given dubious medical or legal information.
You really do need to check the information they give you against reliable sources.
And that doesn't just mean a quick cross-check with Google.
Most search engines now provide summaries to queries which are themselves generated by AI.
So they can also be misleading.
So don't just copy and paste what the chatbot spits out.
You could be sharing incorrect or even dangerous information.
And you'll notice the phrasing can come across as inauthentic and not like you.
Secondly, every time you enter a question or share information with a chatbot, you're helping to train it, making it more intelligent if you like.
So a simple rule is to always ask yourself, would I be happy sharing this information with someone on a bus?
Am I okay with Google, Microsoft, or another technology company storing this information about me forever and potentially using it to train their AI systems?
Be really careful before entering private or sensitive personal information.
If you're using it for work, always follow your employer's data privacy guidelines.
Thirdly, Gen AI uses up a huge amount of energy.
Providing an AI response needs about 10 times more electricity than a Google search and vast amounts of water.
Its capabilities aren't necessary for really basic questions like what's the weather in Sydney today?
Those are the watch outs.
But when you do use it, how can you get the most out of it?
Asking questions, also known as prompts, in the right way really matters.
Be specific, provide context, and be prepared to start again and rephrase if you want a better response.
Suggest a packing list for a weekend in Paris in June, which includes formal and casual clothing appropriate for a 30-year-old British woman.
Should get you a much more useful answer than, what do I need for visiting Paris?
And think about tone.
If you want help with an email, give them information about who you're writing to and how you want to come across.
Help me draft an email to the council asking for a parking ticket refund using a polite but persuasive tone.
Should give you a better draft than, make the council give me my money back.
And of course, check the draft is correct and expressed in the way you want it to be.
Remember, generative AI has created a set of handy tools, but they aren't perfect and you definitely need to cross-check everything they say.
There's a lot more to AI chatbots than we can squeeze into a short film, but we hope this has given you a start.
Watch the other videos in this series to learn more about how AI can save you time, how to avoid AI scams, and how AI can be used for learning.
Thanks for watching.
The ubiquity of Generative AI explains why it is often utilized in (11) ____________________. These systems can quickly create different kinds of content or emails and may even help deal with (12) ____________________.
AI chatbots work by analysing huge volume of online information that has already been (13) ____________________ in databases. AI makes a good companion who can converse with you in various tones as naturally as a real person. Multiple chatbots like Copilot can help users with many duties, including completing the bucket list or (14) ____________________ a talk in a wedding reception.
However, before relying on this marvellous application, users should be careful because chatbots sometimes produce false information, referred to as AI (15) ____________________. It has been reported that AI users have been misguided with ridiculous advice or even (16) ____________________ information in legal or medical fields. Search engines now may display AI-generated summaries instead of traditional search results.

It fries our heads when we use it. It drives us mad when others use it. And yet, no matter how much criticism is heaped on the mobile phone, nearly half of us cannot live without it.
Most people would no more talk to their neighbours on the train or bus than stick pins in their eyes. But once the mobile is pressed to their ears, they are off. In some, it engenders (37. OBLIVIOUS) ______________ to the outside world as they pour forth banalities and intimacies to all around. “I’ll be home at the usual time,” drones the man who has never been home at an unusual time in his life. “Hello poochywoochywoo,” utters another, as we bite our lips and hide behind our papers.
Most disconcerting are the health-conscious, (38. HAND) ______________ crowd who appear to be talking to themselves like (39. LUNACY) ______________ while the phone sits in their pockets, sparing their brain and microwaving another part of their anatomy.
There are few refuges left. Only remote countryside, tunnels and aero-planes offer any respite, but even these do not look secure for long. The London Underground is about to be wired for sound to ensure (40. INTERRUPTION) ______________ twittering beneath the capital.
These, of course, are the problems with everyone else using mobile phones. As with children, we scowl at other people’s but beam (41. FONDNESS) ______________ at our own. Once we have grown to depend on our little brain-frazzlers, we wonder how we ever lived without them.

IV. READING — Cloze (ROH)

For questions 49–53, read the passage and circle the letter A, B, C, or D which best fits each of the gaps.

You could be forgiven for associating the Royal Opera House (ROH) more with the over-50s than with the under-15s. But if you did, then you might be surprised to learn that the ROH’s education department reaches out every year to engage the young generation with opera. It is, however, safe to assume that opera can be an unfamiliar (49) ______ to most schoolchildren, and the first reaction (50) ______ by the ROH in the classroom is often bemusement. “Children respond positively as long as you introduce them to opera in the right way,” explains Paul Reeve, the ROH’s director of education. “The older students can initially have an extreme negative reaction, but that (51) ______ is a great challenge. We give those sceptical kids the opportunity to experience what it’s like to be, say, a composer or a choreographer, and that shows them the skill that is (52) ______ in the art forms.” One popular programme the ROH (53) ______ annually is “Write an Opera” and this year children from 28 UK schools will perform their work on stage in July.

(49) ______

IV. READING — Open cloze (DNA)

For questions 54–58, read the passage and fill in each of the following numbered blanks with ONE suitable word.

Scientists researching the genetic origin of the human race now think that, contrary to previous assumptions, the oldest traceable ancestor of modern human beings is likely to be a woman living in Tanzania or Ethiopia over 150,000 years ago. This is a (54) __________ of new DNA evidence showing that East Africans appear to possess the oldest known DNA lineages, particularly among the Sandawe and Datog tribes of Tanzania.
What leads researchers to identify these populations as ancient is the unusually high proportion of genetic diversity within the mitochondrial DNA of individual members of these groups. Mitochondrial DNA is inherited (55) __________ the female line and accumulates variation with time. In this way, ancient populations accrue far more diversity than those engendered more recently.
According to the latest research, no other populations in Africa show this extent of variation and it appears to corroborate the theory that the cradle of human development lay in East Africa, something also (56) __________ out not only by the archaeological evidence, but also apparently by (57) __________ evidence.
It has long been believed that “click” languages are among the most ancient, with that of the Khoisan peoples of southern Africa being the oldest. Although DNA evidence certainly points to the Khoisan as one of the earliest population groups, it now appears that the Sandawe, also “click” speakers, precede them. This overturns previous assumptions based on archaeological evidence that it was the south which (58) __________ rise to the first populations and implies a more north-eastern point of origin, which researchers hope to pinpoint in the near future.

IV. READING — Gapped paragraphs (Alaska)

For questions 59–64: In the following magazine article, six paragraphs have been removed. Read and choose, from the paragraphs A–G, the one which fits each gap. There is ONE extra paragraph which you do not need to use.

In Alaska, one of the world’s most inhospitable places, people still find ways to defy the extreme cold.
Charlie Skultka frantically scanned the frozen shoreline, the dark fringes where the raging Pacific collides with the forest-covered Mount Edgcombe volcano. Waves pounded the razor-sharp lava reefs, offering no safe haven for him to scramble ashore. He was drifting in the icy waters for about six miles and was beginning to run out of island. “I was in the soup, bouncing around,” he recalls.
59. __________
“I was coming up to the last beach where I could make it ashore when I spotted my board in the same current,” he says. This stroke of luck tipped the scales. Skultka swam for his life, grabbed his board and paddled ashore, exhausted. He then had to walk for three hours back through the isolated Alaskan wilderness to his camp; three hours through dense, freezing forest, thick with grizzlies and cougar where one false step can be your last.
60. __________
There’s a sharp reality to surviving in this cold environment that hits you like a slap across the face. Blizzards with fierce biting winds that chill you to the very bone are a regular occurrence. Sitting in a warm room, heating on, melting into the soft sofa, looking through the double glazing at the comfy white blanket outside is little preparation for the shocking, stinging realism of the climate and the ice-laden sea.
61. __________
“The ice drifts in,” he continues. “Then we get the slush ice, that's really interesting. To watch a wave move through that is incredible. We used to get up on the ice and, when a wave came, you could run off and dive in and catch the wave. Kind of like a little island out in the middle of the surf break. I used to have to sit in the bath for an hour afterwards to warm up - I was almost hypothermic.”
62. __________
“I wiped out once, in water temperature that was about freezing,” says Lesley Choyce, a New Jersey-born cold-water surfer. “I got caught in one of these dead zones where the current was pulling me back out and this big wave was pounding me down, going under, coming back up.”
63. __________
Out of the water, the environment can be just as harsh. “Ice-covered boulders - where water freezes over the shore,” says the Canadian surfer Lance Moore. “You're walking 20 minutes against the wind, and you slip, you slide, you drop your board; you almost want to cry. And of course you’re tired, your body temp has dropped. And you don’t realise it because you've got some adrenaline running through your body. I see people out in the water and I tell them, “You're shivering with cold, man, you should go in.” That’s the one thing I’ve really been trying to tell myself to do when it’s minus four or five degrees. That's when you get sick. But we always stay out for that one more wave.”
64. __________
Being covered from head to toe in hi-tech insulating wetsuits does not separate these searchers from the effects of these glorious sights, just as it does not entirely guard them against the creeping fingers of the icy conditions. For high-altitude climbers, it is as much about the climb as the summit reached. So it is with cold-water surfers, as much about the pure embrace of these wild landscapes as the waves they ride.

Missing paragraphs:
A. That degree of cold carries with it a quiet, ever-present threat. It waits for that one mistake when responses are slowed, when coordination and judgment are slipping, when hypothermia clouds the senses. Just one broken zip during a mid-winter dive or a bad wipeout can trigger a fight for survival.
B. Surfers have been lost to the cold. “You have only a few seconds underwater in sub-zero temperatures before your head is exploding and your lungs are screaming,” Choyce says. “It’s nasty stuff. That would have been one of the three or four times, I guess, that I thought I was going to die.”
C. “My brother-in-law was still there,” he says. “He told me that he thought I'd drowned. In all my time as a surfer I’ve almost drowned several times. Up here there’s no lifeguards on the beach, nobody there but the people you bring.” When you paddle out here in Alaska, you are truly venturing into the wild.
D. There are those cold-water surfers, like Leadbetter and Moore, who endure the snow storms and bitter cold because it is their home, it is what they expect. Yet for others the cold has become an integral and essential part of their surfing experience. They seek it out. They have developed a love of the snowy backdrops, the mountain peaks, the towering cedar forests, the deep, crystal-clear waters, where eagles soar overhead and killer whales cruise below.
E. It was the beginning of a life-long love of riding waves. “I can’t imagine not surfing,” he says with a smile. “I get in two or three times a week.” This is no mean feat. The main surf season falls within the dark months of these northerly latitudes, when daylight hours are a precious commodity.
F. For most people “do or die” is a slogan, a mantra to push them out of their comfort zone. Here in Alaska, where the winters can be particularly unforgiving, it is a very real possibility. Having wiped out and lost his surfboard, Skultka was locked in a fight for his life. He was like a leaf in a river, helpless against the torrent.
G. “We get ice floes come right into the area, not icebergs as such, but chunks of ice as big as this room,” says Jim Leadbetter, a first-generation Canadian surfer. He first took to the waters here in the mid-1960s, armed with only an ex-navy diving suit that leaked like a sieve.

IV. READING — Urban living

Read the passage and do the following tasks. For questions 65–66, complete the summary using the list of words by writing the correct letter (A–E). For questions 67–68, circle the correct letter A, B, C, or D. For questions 69–70: Do the following statements agree with the views of the writer? Write YES, NO, or NOT GIVEN.

The World Health Organisation has produced a report predicting that 9.8 billion of us will be living on this planet by 2050. Of that number, 72% will be living in urban areas - a higher proportion than ever before. Presented with this information, governments have a duty to consider how best to meet the needs of city residents, and not just for the short-term. Certain problems associated with urban living have been highlighted by research company Richmond-Carver in its latest global survey. At the top of the list of survey respondents’ concerns is the fact that competition amongst tenants for rental properties has driven the median price up - so much so people need to hold down two or more jobs to meet all their expenses.
Another issue the survey highlighted is the difficulty commuters face. Overcrowding means that seats are often not available on long journeys, but more significant is that schedules are unreliable. Many studies have shown the effect that has on a country’s productivity. Interestingly, certain problems seem more common in some cities than others: respondents from increasingly crowded European cities, including Manchester and Barcelona, commented on how their quality of life was affected by loud machinery, other people’s music and car alarms. Something the survey failed to ask about was the value people placed on having access to nature in urban neighbourhoods. However, some countries are already moving forward. Singapore is a prime example; its rooftop gardens make the city a far more desirable place to live. It is the Singaporean government that is behind this push for sustainable living.
Perhaps some clearer government direction would benefit other cities. Take New York City, a place where I frequently meet up with other researchers in my field. Luckily for me, I am driven from the airport to the research centre, so do not need to navigate the freeways and constant congestion. Admittedly my experience of the urban lifestyle here is limited to the hotels I stay in, and the blocks within a three-kilometre walk. But whenever I leave my room in search of an outlet providing fruit or anything with nutritional value, none can be found. It seems ridiculous that this should be the case. New York has made great advances in redeveloping its museums and arts centres, but authorities must recognise that people’s basic needs must be met first.
Sometimes these basic needs are misunderstood. In some urban areas, new residential developments are provided with security features such as massive metal fences and multiple gates in the belief that these will make residents safer. There is little evidence such steps make a difference in this way, but we do know they make residents feel reluctant to go outside and walk around their neighbourhood. Instead they are more likely to remain inactive indoors. Grassy areas inside fenced developments are hardly used by householders or tenants either. All this adds up to a feeling of being cut off from others.
So where are planners and developers going wrong? Inviting a group of locals to attend a consultation event is the conventional method for discovering what a community might want. The issue here is that it often attracts the same few voices with the same few wishes. But the internet now makes it possible for others to contribute. A community website can be a place where local people propose ideas for making their neighbourhood a better place to live. Developers that pay attention to these ideas can get a clearer picture of the things residents actually want and reduce the risk of throwing away money on things they don’t.
An example of a project that truly meets the needs of residents is Container City - a development in London’s Docklands area. Constructed from metal containers once used to transport cargo on ships, it is a five-storey architectural masterpiece. The containers have been turned into sunny work studios, and despite their limited size, some come with a bed, shower and kitchen unit. Smart planning and skillful construction mean they take up very little room. Furniture and fittings are made from recycled products. Other countries have their own versions of Container City - Amsterdam and Copenhagen have created container dormitories to house students - but the Docklands site shows how work and living areas can effectively be combined. The units are ideal for young entrepreneurs hoping to establish a business while keeping costs down.
Successful development is taking place in many urban areas around the world, and city planners have a duty to see for themselves the transforming effect this can have on residents’ lives. There is no better way to do this than to visit these places in person. These might be neighbourhoods constructed for the first time, or developers might have transformed what was already there. In either case, the idea of cars determining urban planning, and indeed the whole concept of private car ownership, is now outdated and must be abandoned. Instead, the layout of an area under development must make it easier for people to meet up in pedestrianised zones and community spaces. At the heart of the development should be a cultural area, providing venues for art, music and street theatre. Such activities bring communities together, and do far more for positive relations than a new mall or shopping precinct. For this reason, these kinds of performance spaces should be prioritised. Finally, planners and developers must be obliged to create, within the same neighbourhood, different types of homes for wealthy professionals, for families, for the elderly and for young people just starting out. This kind of mix is essential to ensure people can buy a home in an area convenient for work, and for a community to stay alive.

According to a Richmond-Carver survey, the worst problem facing many city dwellers was (65) ______.

Questions on people’s views on the need for (66) ______ were unfortunately omitted from the survey.

When staying in New York, the writer is frustrated by the fact that ______

What point does the writer make about the use of security features?

City planners should travel to urban areas that are good models of development. (YES / NO / NOT GIVEN)

It is easier to plan an entirely new neighbourhood than redevelop an existing one. (YES / NO / NOT GIVEN)

A note to friend
Sally, can you make sure you include all this information in the publicity leaflet?
Start with details like when we’re open – 10–6 every day – but point out we don’t let anyone in after 5 o’clock. Then say how much it costs to get in – £5.50 is the full price but it costs less for students, kids and pensioners.
Then give a run-down on the museum – make these points:
• one of the most popular museums in London, because people like what it’s about, and we get them to actually take part
• the first bit shows how cinema began – what happened when they first tried to use animation and cine cameras
• the next bit is about silent films, and then there are all sorts of film clips – some of them are cartoons, newsreels and popular Hollywood films
• lots of working models to find out about technology in film and TV – eg pretend to fly with Superman with computer-generated imagery, direct an animated film etc.
• we have audio-cassette guides for blind people, if they ask
• there are two ways in for people in wheelchairs
• we have exhibitions every week
• we offer special guided sign-language tours for the deaf – but they’ll need to get in touch with the Education Department a week beforehand
