Steve Wells, Sylvia Gallusser, and I from the podcast episode
Last week, alongside Steve Wells and Sylvia Gallusser, I spoke in a podcast episode for the Informing Choices podcast, delving into the realm of deepfakes. This conversation was inspired by my article on deepfakes and the identity economy. Throughout the episode, we navigated the potential risks and opportunities that arise from the prevalence of deepfake media in today's dynamic world. From the peril of unchecked propaganda dissemination to the promising realm of digital twins, our discussion covered a spectrum of possibilities. Additionally, Sylvia designed an assessment framework of varying risk levels, centralizing user intent as the defining factor.
I won't delve too deeply into the details here, as I'd love for you to explore the nuanced discussion in the episode linked below:
On a more personal note, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all my subscribers and readers.
