Podcasts about deepfakes

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Abhimanyu Dayal, a longtime Bitcoin advocate and AI practitioner, to explore how money, identity, and power are shifting in a world of deepfakes, surveillance, automation, and geopolitical realignment. The conversation ranges from why self-custody of Bitcoin matters more than ETFs, to the dangers of probabilistic biometrics and face-swap apps, to the coming impact of AGI on labor markets and the role of universal basic income. They also touch on India's refinery economy, its balancing act between Russia, China, and the U.S., and how soft power is eroding in the information age.

Abhimanyu Dayal stresses that passwords and private keys—things only you can know—are inherently more secure than facial recognition or voice scans, which can be spoofed through deepfakes, 3D prints, or AI reconstructions. In his view, biometric data should never be stored because it represents a permanent risk once leaked.The rise of face-swap apps and casual facial data sharing illustrates how surveillance and exploitation have crept into everyday life. Abhimanyu points out that companies already use online images to adjust things like insurance premiums, proving how small pieces of biometric consent can spiral into systemic manipulation. This isn't a hypothetical future—it is already happening in hidden ways.On the lighter side, they experiment with “vibe coding,” using tools like Replit and Claude to design interactive experiences such as a treasure hunt via QR codes and NFTs. This playful example underscores a broader point: lightweight coding and AI platforms empower individuals to create experiments without relying on centralized or closed systems that might inject malware or capture data.The discussion expands into automation, multi-agent systems, and the post-AGI economy. Abhimanyu suggests that artificial superintelligence will require machine-to-machine transactions, making Bitcoin an essential tool. But if machines do the bulk of labor, universal basic income may become unavoidable, even if it drifts toward collectivist structures libertarians dislike.A key shift identified is the transformation of economics itself. Where Hayek once argued economics should critique politicians because of limited data, AI and quantum computing now provide prediction capabilities so granular that human behavior is forecastable at the individual level. This erodes the pseudoscientific nature of past economics and creates a new landscape of policy and control.Geopolitically, the episode explores India's rise, its reliance on refining Russian crude into petroleum exports, and its effort to stay unaligned between the U.S., Russia, and China. The conversation recalls India's Soviet ties during the 1971 war, while noting how today's energy and trade policies underpin domestic improvements for India's poor and middle class.Finally, they critique the co-optation of Bitcoin through ETFs and institutional custody. While investors celebrate, Abhimanyu argues this betrays Satoshi's vision of money controlled by individuals with private keys. He warns that Bitcoin may be absorbed into central bank reserves, while stablecoins extend U.S. monetary dominance by reinforcing dollar power rather than replacing it.

Ezinne and Oji Udezue have over 50 years of combined product leadership experience at Microsoft, Twitter, Atlassian, WP Engine, Typeform, and Calendly. They've witnessed every major shift in product management, and, despite their seniority, they're taking beginner AI courses and learning from engineers half their age, and Oji is coding more now than in the past decade—from Waterfall to Agile to AI. They are also the authors of Building Rocketships, a guide to building great products. In this conversation, the couple shares hard-won lessons they've learned from companies successfully adapting to AI, including their “shipyard” framework and their “sharp problem” methodology.What you'll learn:1. The “shipyard” framework: why the best AI teams embrace controlled chaos2. Why Oji writes more code now than in the past 10 years—despite being a PM for more than 25 years3. The three skills that matter most for PMs in 2025: curiosity, humility, and agency4. How to identify “sharp problems”5. AI at the core vs. AI at the edge: why companies that are building entirely new AI-centric codebases will beat those just “sprinkling AI” on existing products6. The counterintuitive truth: engineers are moving so fast with AI that PMs are now the bottleneck7.

The managed services provider (MSP) market is experiencing a paradoxical trend where revenue is increasing while the number of providers is decreasing. According to Canalys data, global managed services revenue surpassed half a trillion dollars in 2024, reflecting a year-over-year growth of 9.7%. However, the number of channel partners has slightly declined by 0.6%, with large MSPs rapidly acquiring smaller ones. This consolidation trend has led to a significant shift in the market dynamics, where smaller MSPs struggle to compete against larger firms that possess superior resources and pricing power.To survive in this competitive landscape, smaller MSPs must adopt focused strategies, targeting specific customer segments or industries. By doing so, they can achieve higher profit margins, with specialized MSPs reporting EBITDA percentages between 15% to 30%, compared to just 7% for those lacking focus. The article emphasizes that smaller MSPs have several options: they can sell to larger firms, acquire smaller peers, focus on niche markets, or leverage partnerships to remain competitive. The reality is that the middle tier of MSPs is rapidly disappearing, and those who attempt to serve everyone may find themselves at a disadvantage.In addition to the MSP market dynamics, the podcast discusses recent legislative developments, including Michigan's new laws addressing deepfakes, which make it illegal to create AI-generated sexual imagery without consent. This reflects a growing trend across the U.S. to combat nonconsensual abuse imagery, with most states now having similar laws. Furthermore, the U.S. Treasury has imposed sanctions on individuals and entities linked to North Korea's illicit IT worker schemes, highlighting the security risks posed by fraudulent practices in the tech industry.The episode also covers the latest advancements in AI-powered security solutions from various vendors, including Thrive, Addigy, Arctic Wolf, and Acronis. These companies are rolling out new services and products designed to enhance security operations and protect data. The overarching theme is that as technology evolves, the risks associated with it are also increasing, and IT service providers must adapt to these changes by offering value-added services that help clients navigate the complexities of compliance and security in a rapidly changing environment. Four things to know today 00:00 MSP Market Expands to $500B as Provider Count Shrinks Amid Rapid Consolidation04:10 From Abuse Imagery to Supply Chain Threats, Regulation Struggles to Keep Up With Emerging Risks07:45 AI Everywhere: Thrive, Security Vendors, OpenAI, and Microsoft Redefine Service Provider Playbook12:39 D&H and Nutanix Growth Signals Services-Led Future as Distributors and Vendors Push Into MSP Territory This is the Business of Tech.     Supported by:  https://scalepad.com/dave/ https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship  All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Today's Headlines: Trump finally reappeared yesterday—45 minutes late to his big Oval Office presser—where he confirmed Space Force HQ is moving from Colorado Springs to Huntsville, Alabama (something we already knew thanks to a DoD slip-up). Asked about his mysterious five-day absence and rumors he'd died, Trump brushed it off, then pivoted to announce he's sending National Guard troops into Chicago, prompting Gov. JB Pritzker to accuse the feds of already staging units nearby. At the same time, Sec. of State Marco Rubio announced a U.S. strike on a Venezuela-linked drug boat in the Caribbean that killed 11, with Trump posting an explosion video on Truth Social as his version of “just say no.” Meanwhile, Trump's two-week “deadline” for peace in Ukraine passed without progress—Putin was too busy in China attending Xi Jinping's WWII anniversary parade with North Korea's Kim Jong Un and his daughter/successor Kim Ju Ae. Back in D.C., Congress returned from recess facing another looming shutdown and the Epstein files circus: six survivors testified on Capitol Hill as lawmakers released 30,000 pages of mostly redundant documents, while still pressing DOJ for the unredacted batch. Elsewhere, a federal judge ruled Google abused its search monopoly but stopped short of breaking up Chrome—news that sent its stock soaring. And Denmark just made history by becoming the first European country to grant citizens copyright control over their likeness, including AI-generated versions of themselves, with protections lasting 50 years after death.

Německá novinářka Patrizia Schlosser se nebojí témat, kterým se jiní raději vyhýbají: Hledala bývalé členy ultralevicové teroristické skupiny Frakce Rudé armády, mapovala fungování neonacistické scény v Německu i online komunitu mužů natáčejících ženy bez jejich vědomí, aby získaný obsah sdíleli na pornografických platformách.Ve chvíli, kdy začala zkoumat zneužívání a tzv. revenge porn na serveru xHamster, Patrizia Schlosser narazila na globální síť, která mimo zveřejňované záběry nic netušících žen vydělává i obrovské zisky. Aby se dostala k lidem, kteří systematicky natáčejí své oběti, rozhodla se nahrát vlastní „materiál“.Patrizia otevřeně mluví o tom, co znamená být novinářkou v patriarchálním světě, jak těžké je oslovovat oběti, ale i o tom, jaké to bylo, když se její vlastní tvář objevila v deepfake pornografii. O studu, vzteku a o pátrání po zakladatelích největších porno platforem, jejichž zisky mizí v offshorových strukturách.Silný, nepříjemný, ale důležitý díl o zneužívání moci, a také o tom, co dělat, když se sama objevíte v materiálu, kterým se profesně zrovna zabýváte.

This episode features an interview with Gaurav Misra, CEO, Captions, an AI video-generation company that allows you to create and edit talking videos with AI.  Gaurav dives into the practical applications and future implications of AI in video, and how these tools can enhance marketing efforts for businesses of all sizes.Key Takeaways:Video capabilities are improving rapidly, and are now at the point where spinning up an AI-generated version of you speaking, is likely better quality than anything you could deliver to camera. These capabilities allow marketers to spin-up and test content very quickly with far less expense than in the past. How people will react to content moving forward, when it will become less and less clear what is real, remains to be seen. Quote: “ Spun up a video and it's like me wearing like a suit… I'm delivering this emotional message, but I'm delivering it so fluently with all these words that I would probably never use actually… and I'm looking at this like, shit, I couldn't be like this on camera.

During this series of informative podcasts, we'll bring you foundational training on the most popular Oracle technologies. Let's get started! 00:25 Lois: Welcome to the Oracle University Podcast! I'm Lois Houston, Director of Innovation Programs with Oracle University, and with me is Nikita Abraham, Team Lead of Editorial Services.   Nikita: Hi everyone! Last week was Part 2 of our conversation on core AI concepts, where we went over the basics of data science. In Part 3 today, we'll look at generative AI and gen AI agents in detail. To help us with that, we have Himanshu Raj, Principal AI/ML Instructor. Hi Himanshu, what's the difference between traditional AI and generative AI?  01:01 Himanshu: So until now, when we talked about artificial intelligence, we usually meant models that could analyze information and make decisions based on it, like a judge who looks at evidence and gives a verdict. And that's what we call traditional AI that's focused on analysis, classification, and prediction.  But with generative AI, something remarkable happens. Generative AI does not just evaluate. It creates. It's more like a storyteller who uses knowledge from the past to imagine and build something brand new. For example, instead of just detecting if an email is spam, generative AI could write an entirely new email for you.  Another example, traditional AI might predict what a photo contains. Generative AI, on the other hand, creates a brand-new photo based on description. Generative AI refers to artificial intelligence models that can create entirely new content, such as text, images, music, code, or video that resembles human-made work.  Instead of simple analyzing or predicting, generative AI produces something original that resembles what a human might create.   02:16 Lois: How did traditional AI progress to the generative AI we know today?  Himanshu: First, we will look at small supervised learning. So in early days, AI models were trained on small labeled data sets. For example, we could train a model with a few thousand emails labeled spam or not spam. The model would learn simple decision boundaries. If email contains, "congratulations," it might be spam. This was efficient for a straightforward task, but it struggled with anything more complex.  Then, comes the large supervised learning. As the internet exploded, massive data sets became available, so millions of images, billions of text snippets, and models got better because they had much more data and stronger compute power and thanks to advances, like GPUs, and cloud computing, for example, training a model on millions of product reviews to predict customer sentiment, positive or negative, or to classify thousands of images in cars, dogs, planes, etc.  Models became more sophisticated, capturing deeper patterns rather than simple rules. And then, generative AI came into the picture, and we eventually reached a point where instead of just classifying or predicting, models could generate entirely new content.  Generative AI models like ChatGPT or GitHub Copilot are trained on enormous data sets, not to simply answer a yes or no, but to create outputs that look and feel like human made. Instead of judging the spam or sentiment, now the model can write an article, compose a song, or paint a picture, or generate new software code.  03:55 Nikita: Himanshu, what motivated this sort of progression?   Himanshu: Because of the three reasons. First one, data, we had way more of it thanks to the internet, smartphones, and social media. Second is compute. Graphics cards, GPUs, parallel computing, and cloud systems made it cheap and fast to train giant models.  And third, and most important is ambition. Humans always wanted machines not just to judge existing data, but to create new knowledge, art, and ideas.   04:25 Lois: So, what's happening behind the scenes? How is gen AI making these things happen?  Himanshu: Generative AI is about creating entirely new things across different domains. On one side, we have large language models or LLMs.  They are masters of generating text conversations, stories, emails, and even code. And on the other side, we have diffusion models. They are the creative artists of AI, turning text prompts into detailed images, paintings, or even videos.  And these two together are like two different specialists. The LLM acts like a brain that understands and talks, and the diffusion model acts like an artist that paints based on the instructions. And when we connect these spaces together, we create something called multimodal AI, systems that can take in text and produce images, audio, or other media, opening a whole new range of possibilities.  It can not only take the text, but also deal in different media options. So today when we say ChatGPT or Gemini, they can generate images, and it's not just one model doing everything. These are specialized systems working together behind the scenes.  05:38 Lois: You mentioned large language models and how they power text-based gen AI, so let's talk more about them. Himanshu, what is an LLM and how does it work?  Himanshu: So it's a probabilistic model of text, which means, it tries to predict what word is most likely to come next based on what came before.  This ability to predict one word at a time intelligently is what builds full sentences, paragraphs, and even stories.  06:06 Nikita: But what's large about this? Why's it called a large language model?   Himanshu: It simply means the model has lots and lots of parameters. And think of parameters as adjustable dials the model fine tuned during learning.  There is no strict rule, but today, large models can have billions or even trillions of these parameters. And the more the parameters, more complex patterns, the model can understand and can generate a language better, more like human.  06:37 Nikita: Ok… and image-based generative AI is powered by diffusion models, right? How do they work?  Himanshu: Diffusion models start with something that looks like pure random noise.  Imagine static on an old TV screen. No meaningful image at all. From there, the model carefully removes noise step by step to create something more meaningful and think of it like sculpting a statue. You start with a rough block of stone and slowly, carefully you chisel away to reveal a beautiful sculpture hidden inside.  And in each step of this process, the AI is making an educated guess based on everything it has learned from millions of real images. It's trying to predict.   07:24 Stay current by taking the 2025 Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications Delta Certifications.

Himanshu, for most of us, our experience with generative AI is with text-based tools like ChatGPT. But I'm sure the uses go far beyond that, right? Can you walk us through some of them?  Himanshu: First one is text generation. So we can talk about chatbots, which are now capable of handling nuanced customer queries in banking travel and retail, saving companies hours of support time. Think of a bank chatbot helping a customer understand mortgage options or virtual HR Assistant in a large company, handling leave request. You can have embedding models which powers smart search systems.  Instead of searching by keywords, businesses can now search by meaning. For instance, a legal firm can search cases about contract violations in tech and get semantically relevant results, even if those exact words are not used in the documents.  The third one, for example, code generation, tools like GitHub Copilot help developers write boilerplate or even functional code, accelerating software development, especially in routine or repetitive tasks. Imagine writing a waveform with just a few prompts.  The second application, is image generation. So first obvious use is art. So designers and marketers can generate creative concepts instantly. Say, you need illustrations for a campaign on future cities. Generative AI can produce dozens of stylized visuals in minutes.  For design, interior designers or architects use it to visualize room layouts or design ideas even before a blueprint is finalized. And realistic images, retail companies generate images of people wearing their clothing items without needing real models or photoshoots, and this reduces the cost and increase the personalization.  Third application is multimodal systems, and these are combined systems that take one kind of input or a combination of different inputs and produce different kind of outputs, or can even combine various kinds, be it text image in both input and output.  Text to image It's being used in e-commerce, movie concept art, and educational content creation. For text to video, this is still in early days, but imagine creating a product explainer video just by typing out the script. Marketing teams love this for quick turnarounds. And the last one is text to audio.  Tools like ElevenLabs can convert text into realistic, human like voiceovers useful in training modules, audiobooks, and accessibility apps. So generative AI is no longer just a technical tool. It's becoming a creative copilot across departments, whether it's marketing, design, product support, and even operations.  10:42 Lois: That's great! So, we've established that generative AI is pretty powerful. But what kind of risks does it pose for businesses and society in general?  Himanshu: The first one is deepfakes. Generative AI can create fake but highly realistic media, video, audios or even faces that look and sound authentic.  Imagine a fake video of a political leader announcing a policy, they never approved. This could cause mass confusion or even impact elections. In case of business, deepfakes can be also used in scams where a CEO's voice is faked to approve fraudulent transactions.  Number two, bias, if AI is trained on biased historical data, it can reinforce stereotypes even when unintended. For example, a hiring AI system that favors male candidates over equally qualified women because of historical data was biased.  And this bias can expose companies to discrimination, lawsuits, brand damage and ethical concerns. Number three is hallucinations. So sometimes AI system confidently generate information that is completely wrong without realizing it.   Sometimes you ask a chatbot for a legal case summary, and it gives you a very convincing but entirely made up court ruling. In case of business impact, sectors like health care, finance, or law hallucinations can or could have serious or even dangerous consequences if not caught.  The fourth one is copyright and IP issues, generative AI creates new content, but often, based on material it was trained on. Who owns a new work? A real life example could be where an artist finds their unique style was copied by an AI that was trained on their paintings without permission.  In case of a business impact, companies using AI-generated content for marketing, branding or product designs must watch for legal gray areas around copyright and intellectual properties. So generative AI is not just a technology conversation, it's a responsibility conversation. Businesses must innovate and protect.  Creativity and caution must go together.   12:50 Nikita: Let's move on to generative AI agents. How is a generative AI agent different from just a chatbot or a basic AI tool?  Himanshu: So think of it like a smart assistant, not just answering your questions, but also taking actions on your behalf. So you don't just ask, what's the best flight to Vegas? Instead, you tell the agent, book me a flight to Vegas and a room at the Hilton. And it goes ahead, understands that, finds the options, connects to the booking tools, and gets it done.   So act on your behalf using goals, context, and tools, often with a degree of autonomy. Goals, are user defined outcomes. Example, I want to fly to Vegas and stay at Hilton. Context, this includes preferences history, constraints like economy class only or don't book for Mondays.  Tools could be APIs, databases, or services it can call, such as a travel API or a company calendar. And together, they let the agent reason, plan, and act.   14:02 Nikita: How does a gen AI agent work under the hood?  Himanshu: So usually, they go through four stages. First, one is understands and interprets your request like natural language understanding. Second, figure out what needs to be done, in this case flight booking plus hotel search.  Third, retrieves data or connects to tools APIs if needed, such as Skyscanner, Expedia, or a Calendar. And fourth is takes action. That means confirming the booking and giving you a response like your travel is booked. Keep in mind not all gen AI agents are fully independent.  14:38 Lois: Himanshu, we've seen people use the terms generative AI agents and agentic AI interchangeably. What's the difference between the two?  Himanshu: Agentic AI is a broad umbrella. It refers to any AI system that can perceive, reason, plan, and act toward a goal and may improve and adapt over time.   Most gen AI agents are reactive, not proactive. On the other hand, agentic AI can plan ahead, anticipate problems, and can even adjust strategies.  So gen AI agents are often semi-autonomous. They act in predefined ways or with human approval. Agentic systems can range from low to full autonomy. For example, auto-GPT runs loops without user prompts and autonomous car decides routes and reactions.  Most gen AI agents can only make multiple steps if explicitly designed that way, like a step-by-step logic flows in LangChain. And in case of agentic AI, it can plan across multiple steps with evolving decisions.  On the memory and goal persistence, gen AI agents are typically stateless. That means they forget their goal unless you remind them. In case of agentic AI, these systems remember, adapt, and refine based on goal progression. For example, a warehouse robot optimizing delivery based on changing layouts.  Some generative AI agents are agentic, like auto GPT. They use LLMs to reason, plan, and act, but not all. And likewise not all agentic AIs are generative. For example, an autonomous car, which may use computer vision control systems and planning, but no generative models.  So agentic AI is a design philosophy or system behavior, which could be goal-driven, autonomous, and decision making. They can overlap, but as I said, not all generative AI agents are agentic, and not all agentic AI systems are generative.  16:39 Lois: What makes a generative AI agent actually work?  Himanshu: A gen AI agent isn't just about answering the question. It's about breaking down a user's goal, figuring out how to achieve it, and then executing that plan intelligently. These agents are built from five core components and each playing a critical role.  The first one is goal. So what is this agent trying to achieve? Think of this as the mission or intent. For example, if I tell the agent, help me organized a team meeting for Friday. So the goal in that case would be schedule a meeting.  Number 2, memory. What does it remember? So this is the agent's context awareness. Storing previous chats, preferences, or ongoing tasks. For example, if last week I said I prefer meetings in the afternoon or I have already shared my team's availability, the agent can reuse that. And without the memory, the agent behaves stateless like a typical chatbot that forgets context after every prompt.  Third is tools. What can it access? Agents aren't just smart, they are also connected. They can be given access to tools like calendars, CRMs, web APIs, spreadsheets, and so on.  The fourth one is planner. So how does it break down the goal? And this is where the reasoning happens. The planner breaks big goals into a step-by-step plans, for example checking team availability, drafting meeting invite, and then sending the invite. And then probably, will confirm the booking. Agents don't just guess. They reason and organize actions into a logical path.  And the fifth and final one is executor, who gets it done. And this is where the action takes place. The executor performs what the planner lays out. For example, calling APIs, sending message, booking reservations, and if planner is the architect, executor is the builder.   18:36 Nikita: And where are generative AI agents being used?  Himanshu: Generative AI agents aren't just abstract ideas, they are being used across business functions to eliminate repetitive work, improve consistency, and enable faster decision making. For marketing, a generative AI agent can search websites and social platforms to summarize competitor activity. They can draft content for newsletters or campaign briefs in your brand tone, and they can auto-generate email variations based on audience segment or engagement history.  For finance, a generative AI agent can auto-generate financial summaries and dashboards by pulling from ERP spreadsheets and BI tools. They can also draft variance analysis and budget reports tailored for different departments. They can scan regulations or policy documents to flag potential compliance risks or changes.  For sales, a generative AI agent can auto-draft personalized sales pitches based on customer behavior or past conversations. They can also log CRM entries automatically once submitting summary is generated. They can also generate battlecards or next-step recommendations based on the deal stage.  For human resource, a generative AI agent can pre-screen resumes based on job requirements. They can send interview invites and coordinate calendars. A common theme here is that generative AI agents help you scale your teams without scaling the headcount.   20:02 Nikita: Himanshu, let's talk about the capabilities and benefits of generative AI agents.  Himanshu: So generative AI agents are transforming how entire departments function. For example, in customer service, 24/7 AI agents handle first level queries, freeing humans for complex cases.  They also enhance the decision making. Agents can quickly analyze reports, summarize lengthy documents, or spot trends across data sets. For example, a finance agent reviewing Excel data can highlight cash flow anomalies or forecast trends faster than a team of analysts.  In case of personalization, the agents can deliver unique, tailored experiences without manual effort. For example, in marketing, agents generate personalized product emails based on each user's past behavior. For operational efficiency, they can reduce repetitive, low-value tasks. For example, an HR agent can screen hundreds of resumes, shortlist candidates, and auto-schedule interviews, saving HR team hours each week.  21:06 Lois: Ok. And what are the risks of using generative AI agents?  Himanshu: The first one is job displacement. Let's be honest, automation raises concerns. Roles involving repetitive tasks such as data entry, content sorting are at risk. In case of ethics and accountability, when an AI agent makes a mistake, who is responsible? For example, if an AI makes a biased hiring decision or gives incorrect medical guidance, businesses must ensure accountability and fairness.  For data privacy, agents often access sensitive data, for example employee records or customer history. If mishandled, it could lead to compliance violations. In case of hallucinations, agents may generate confident but incorrect outputs called hallucinations. This can often mislead users, especially in critical domains like health care, finance, or legal.  So generative AI agents aren't just tools, they are a force multiplier. But they need to be deployed thoughtfully with a human lens and strong guardrails. And that's how we ensure the benefits outweigh the risks.  22:10 Lois: Thank you so much, Himanshu, for educating us. We've had such a great time with you!

What happens when a computer science PhD specializing in AI pivots to blockchain technology? For Radha Dasari, Lead Technical Advocate at the Web3 Foundation, it was a journey fueled by a mission to combat digital misinformation and bring fairness to the internet.In this eye-opening episode of The Index, host Alex Kehaya sits down with Radha to explore how Polkadot has evolved since its early days of parachain auctions. He breaks down the move to Agile Coretime—a major innovation that dramatically lowers entry barriers for developers while keeping Polkadot's integrated security model intact. Unlike other multi-chain ecosystems where chain security varies, Polkadot's validator shuffling ensures uniform security across all parachains—a true differentiator in the blockchain space.The most fascinating part of our discussion emerges at the intersection of AI and blockchain. Drawing from his academic background in artificial intelligence, Radha explains how deepfakes and digital misinformation pushed him toward seeing blockchain as an “anchor for truth.” He shares exciting developments in content authenticity solutions built on blockchain technology and introduces us to Jam Protocol—a Gavin Wood project creating a decentralized supercomputer capable of running programs indefinitely.Radha's vision for Web3 goes far beyond financial applications—his passion lies in designing digital spaces rooted in fairness, authenticity, and trust.

Recently, a false story and AI-created image of Eminem and a student he promised to let rap with him went viral. Now, this story wasn't real but it was shared all over the "local" internet, with other variations including other artists.  It really showed how many people, when emotionally motivated - looked right past it. This isn't the first (and it won't be the last) that AI, deepfakes, and false information has spread like wildfire. This got us thinking, maybe we should talk about it? And how do we navigate in this new era? AI-generated stuff is here to stay, but is AI overall a bubble? Nick Mattar, an expert in how people interact with digital media and AI joins us to discuss.

Reimagining Intellectual Property in the Age of Luxury Tech: I'm curating this exclusive side event in Geneva on September 1 during the Luxury Innovation Summit. Limited seats, apply now to join the conversation.On this episode, we discuss how the explosive growth of the influencer economy has created a fascinating new frontier in intellectual property law, where personal brands clash with corporate interests and digital avatars raise unprecedented legal questions.This episode unpacks the high-stakes IP battles reshaping the $20 billion influencer industry, revealing how savvy creators protect their most valuable asset, their identity. Through compelling case studies like Charli D'Amelio's strategic trademark registrations and the legendary "Battle of the Kylies" between Jenner and Minogue, we explore how influencers transform fleeting social media fame into lasting, legally-protected brand equity.But the legal landscape doesn't just apply to human influencers. We venture into the uncanny valley of virtual personalities like Lil Miquella and Noonoouri, examining how these digital beings, composed entirely of intellectual property, navigate contracts, licensing, and disclosure requirements. As luxury brands increasingly embrace these pixel-perfect ambassadors who never age and never sleep, the boundaries between creative assets and personas continue to blur.The global response to these challenges reveals fascinating cultural and legal differences. From Tennessee's groundbreaking AI-ELVIS Act protecting voice rights to China's comprehensive regulations on "deep synthesis" content, we witness how legal frameworks worldwide are evolving to address deepfakes, digital cloning, and the ownership of virtual identities.Whether you're an influencer building your personal brand, a marketer navigating partnership agreements, or simply curious about the legal infrastructure behind social media fame, this episode offers crucial insights into who truly owns your digital presence—and how to protect it. Remember: in the high-stakes world of influence, the law isn't here to rain on your parade; it's here to ensure you own the parade itself.Subscribe now to explore the intersection of intellectual property and digital influence, and join us at the Luxury Innovation Summit 2025 in Geneva this September for our special event on IP in the age of luxury technology.Send us a textSupport the show

Some Catholics no doubt took offense, but no one was seriously harmed by the Pope-in-a-puffer-jacket meme. Far more sinister deepfakes are on the rise, however, with scammers now frequently using widely available technology to bilk the unwary, and political campaigns marshaling AI to sow lies about their opponents. Perhaps the greatest threat is not the deepfakes themselves but that their mere existence can cause us to question the veracity of nearly everything we see and hear online and in the media. So, how concerned should we be about the proliferation of fake media? And what, if anything, is being done to staunch the bleeding? UC Berkeley Professor Hany Farid, a pioneer in the field of digital forensics, joins Editor-in-Chief Pat Joseph live onstage to discuss what the growing onslaught of mis- and disinformation portends for our society and what we can do to manage it.Further reading: Watch the full live conversation with Hany Farid on YouTubeFind out more about California Live! events This episode was produced by Coby McDonald.  Special thanks to Hany Farid, Pat Joseph, and Nat Alcantara.

Tax season scams are nothing new, but David Maimon is tracking a worrying evolution. As head of Fraud Insights at SentiLink and a professor of fraud intelligence at Georgia State University, David has been studying how organised crime groups are now blending stolen identities with generative AI and deepfake technology to outpace traditional security measures. In this conversation, he explains how identities from some of the least likely victims, including death row inmates, are being exploited to open neobank accounts, set up fake businesses, and run sophisticated bust-out schemes with a low risk of detection. David breaks down how these operations work, from creating synthetic identities using stolen Social Security numbers to manufacturing convincing documents and faces that can pass liveness checks. He reveals the telltale signs his team uncovered, such as shared physical addresses, legacy email domains, and consistent digital fingerprints that point to coordinated fraud rings. With tools like DeepFaceLive, Avatarify, and cloned voices now being deployed to bypass authentication, he warns that the gap between criminal innovation and institutional defences can be as wide as 7 to 12 months. We also explore why financial institutions struggle to detect these scams early, and why layered verification, combining real-time checks with historical identity analysis, is essential. David shares the threats on the horizon, from increasingly realistic AI-generated images to voice cloning attacks, and stresses the need for both technological solutions and public awareness to slow the momentum of these schemes. Whether you work in banking, cybersecurity, or simply want to protect your own identity, this episode offers a rare look inside the tactics, tools, and vulnerabilities shaping the next wave of financial fraud. And yes, there is still time at the end for a great book recommendation and a classic Tom Petty track.
