As AI access spreads, new concerns over the proliferation of biased AI and the deepfake

from Midday · host WYPR 88.1 Baltimore

Guest host Farai Chideya explores how AI-generated content can target and harm individuals and entire communities, and examines the efforts of advocates and policymakers working to address these threats. Kristen Griffith, an education reporter for The Baltimore Banner, joins Midday to share her reporting on a local example of an AI-generated deepfake used to harm the reputation of local school principal Eric Eiswert in 2024. Eiswert, the former principal of Pikesville High School where the incident occurred, addressed the incident in a statement submitted to WYPR. To continue our discussion on AI issues, we hear from Mutale Nkonde, the CEO and founder of AI for the People. This organization advocates for policies that promote responsible AI development. Nkonde also serves on TikTok's Content Moderation Board and is the author of "Automated Anti-Blackness: Why We Need to Name Race to Create Just Technological Futures."
