Saturday Pods Begin with a lot of AI

This week, hosts Jim Ludes and Mark Jacobson discuss China's use of Artificial Intelligence to create a so-called "propaganda engine," leveraging AI to monitor content and respond with narratives designed to either diminish or amplify messages.  They then turn to reporting on the soft power of international assistance and the binding power of international trade--two things the United States did tremendously well, until recently.  Finally, they return to the use of generative AI to produce inauthentic videos.With this episode, the Active Measures Newsletter Podcast shifts production so that when new episodes are produced, they are released alongside that week's newsletter.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
