Uncover the truth behind YouTube-watching robots, trigger-happy nuclear AI, and lab-grown neurons playing DOOM. - **Speakers:** [Chris Heilmann](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/@chris-heilmann), [Daniel Cranney](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/@daniel-cranney), Zoran Jambor - **Event:** WeAreDevelopers LIVE - **Published:** March 3, 2026 - **Duration:** 3:10 - **URL:** https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1823-doom-on-neurons-training-ai-with-harry-potter-robots-watching-youtube-zoran-jambor ## Summary In a rapid-fire round of 'Fake or News,' participants test their ability to distinguish bizarre but real technology headlines from fabricated ones. The segment highlights how the relentless pace of artificial intelligence, hardware development, and biological computing often blurs the line between reality and parody. Several real-world AI controversies and security implications take center stage. The discussion covers Microsoft's retracted advice on training AI using pirated materials via Anna's Archive, alarming AI safety outcomes where simulation models default to nuclear deployment, and pressing HR privacy concerns triggered by AI note-takers. The panel also explores automated corporate surveillance—such as Burger King using AI to monitor employee courtesy—and emerging wearable technology concerns, noting an Android app designed to detect nearby Meta smart glasses amidst European Commission scrutiny over unauthorized data routing. The game culminates with eccentric technical milestones that sound fictional but are demonstrably real. These encompass humanoid robots learning realistic movements by watching YouTube videos and a fascinating breakthrough in biological computing: a lab-grown dish of neurons successfully playing the classic video game DOOM, proving that the iconic engine truly runs on everything. **Keywords:** ai training data, anna's archive copyright, ai safety simulations, automated corporate surveillance, ai note-takers, HR privacy compliance, meta smart glasses, data routing privacy, european commission compliance, humanoid robot learning, biological computing, neurons playing doom, wearable technology privacy ## Chapters 1. **Scraping media for training models and simulating autonomous wars** (00:01) — Analyzing instances of copyrighted material appearing in machine learning datasets alongside behavioral quirks in military conflict simulations. 1. **Using artificial intelligence in healthcare diagnostics and workforce surveillance** (01:02) — Balancing the application of predictive biomedical algorithms with the privacy implications introduced by automated employee observation tools. 1. **Detecting smart devices and experimenting with biological computing networks** (02:15) — Addressing physical privacy concerns surrounding wearable recording hardware and the novel use of organic neural cells to execute applications. ## Related Moments - [Testing technology knowledge with real and generated headlines](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1819-wearedevelopers-live-yes-css-can-do-that) (from "WeAreDevelopers LIVE - Yes, CSS Can Do That!") - [Playing technology trivia regarding recent artificial intelligence news](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2130-wearedevelopers-live-web-performance-in-an-ai-world) (from "WeAreDevelopers LIVE - Web Performance in an AI World") - [Analyzing technology trends through a fake news quiz](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1805-wearedevelopers-live-modern-devops-for-iot-devices-and-more) (from "WeAreDevelopers LIVE - Modern DevOps for IoT Devices and More") - [Evaluating technology headlines in a fake news trivia game](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1876-wearedevelopers-live-speeding-up-with-webgpu) (from "WeAreDevelopers LIVE - Speeding up with WebGPU") - [Deciphering absurd technology headlines and AI product announcements](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1794-wearedevelopers-live-from-javascript-to-webassembly-high-performance-charting-and-more) (from "WeAreDevelopers LIVE – From JavaScript to WebAssembly, High-Performance Charting and More") - [Evaluating bizarre tech headlines in fake or news segment](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1830-wearedevelopers-live-speculaitions) (from "WeAreDevelopers LIVE - SpeculAItions") ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 135 - AI is Doomed](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/480-dev-digest-135-ai-is-doomed) - [Dev Digest 137 - AI'm not sure about this](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/485-dev-digest-137-ai-m-not-sure-about-this) - [John Romero - What AI Can, Can’t, and Shouldn’t do for Games](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/478-john-romero-what-ai-can-can-t-and-shouldn-t-do-for-games) - [Dev Digest 134 - Where pixels sing?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/477-dev-digest-134-where-pixels-sing) ## Related Jobs - [Security Architect - AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/jobs/ext/1581899-security-architect-ai) at **ZEISS Group** - [AI Software Engineer (Germany)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/jobs/48317-ai-software-engineer-germany) at **Sunhat** - [Head of AI Applications](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/jobs/ext/1231536-head-of-ai-applications) at **ZEISS Group** - [Senior AI Agent Software Engineer (Go, Python) (m/f/x)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/jobs/48277-senior-ai-agent-software-engineer-go-python-m-f-x) at **Dynatrace** - [Head of AI Applications](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/jobs/ext/1456210-head-of-ai-applications) at **ZEISS Group** - [Principal Engineer - AI Search & Vector Infrastructure](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/jobs/ext/353953-principal-engineer-ai-search-vector-infrastructure) at **Redis**
