Next, media scholar Nolan Higdon discusses his latest piece Unmasking AI: 10 Myths Fueling the Silicon Mirage.

To dismantle this narrative, Nolan Higdon examines ten pervasive myths surrounding AI.   The News That Didn’t Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy.
