Can Truth Survive AI? | Steve Rosenbaum | The Future of Truth

What happens when AI becomes so good that we can no longer tell what is real? In this episode of The NickStandlea Show, Nick sits down with Steve Rosenbaum to talk about AI, misinformation, fake video, social media, education, creativity, and the future of truth. Steve argues that AI is not simply another new technology. It is a force that may change how we understand reality itself. From deepfake videos and hallucinated facts to algorithmic decision-making and AI-generated media, the conversation explores what happens when machines become confident, persuasive, and often wrong. But this is not just a doom-and-gloom conversation. Nick and Steve also discuss the real upside of AI: better tools, more creativity, faster work, and new possibilities in law, medicine, education, and the arts. The central question is not whether AI is good or bad. It is whether we can build a future where AI serves human beings instead of quietly reshaping our choices, attention, and trust. Topics include: AI-generated video and the future of fake media Why people overestimate their ability to spot AI content ChatGPT hallucinations and “confidently wrong” answers The difference between objective truth and subjective truth What social media can teach us about AI risk Whether AI will make people more productive or less human How students, teachers, and parents should think about AI Hidden incentives behind AI platforms Why “human in the loop” may be too simplistic What ordinary people can do as AI becomes more powerful This is a conversation about truth, technology, and what it means to stay human in the age of artificial intelligence.
