Extremism Has Entered The Chat
Sun Jan 26 2025
🎙️ As with all technology, it doesn't just empower the nice people. This week, we’re diving into the dark side of AI—the algorithms amplifying hate, the bots spreading propaganda, and the extremists using these tools in ways you really don’t want to imagine.
We’ll unpack how AI is reshaping the digital landscape, from its role in creating echo chambers to its uncanny ability to bring out the worst in people. We’ll also look at the big players - tech companies, governments, and the individuals caught in the middle, and try to figure out whether anyone has a plan to stop this chaos before it’s too late.
And of course, we’re asking the big questions: Is AI just a tool, or is it shaping us as much as we shape it? Can regulation or education even keep up? We might not have all the answers, but one thing’s for sure -we need to start asking the right questions.
