Initially focused on combating toxicity and promoting positivity in gaming, the technology is now expanding to address fraud and challenges like deepfakes. Mike emphasizes the importance of transparency with users, collaboration with studios based on their codes of conduct, and a privacy-centric approach focusing on behaviors, not individuals.Key Themes & Insights: Advanced Voice Analysis: Toxmod interprets emotion, nuance, and behavioral impacts in voice, not just words, to identify harmful or positive interactions. Studio Collaboration & Transparency: Modulate tunes Toxmod to studio-specific guidelines, with studios making final decisions. Open communication with players about moderation is crucial. Privacy-Conscious Moderation: The system focuses on identifying harmful or positive behaviors exhibited by users, rather than building profiles of individuals.

Welcome to another episode of Category Visionaries — the show that explores GTM stories from tech's most innovative B2B founders. In today's episode, we're speaking with Mike Pappas, CEO and Co-Founder of Modulate, a voice safety platform that has raised $36 Million in funding. Here are the most interesting points from our conversation: Unconventional Path to Tech: Mike's journey from studying physics and math at MIT, exploring different industries, including a significant stint at Bridgewater Associates, before co-founding Modulate with his CTO, Carter, reflects the importance of diverse experiences in shaping a founder's vision and approach to building innovative solutions. Bridgewater's Influence: Mike's time at Bridgewater Associates introduced him to the principles of radical transparency and continuous feedback, shaping his management style and the culture at Modulate, albeit with a nuanced approach to accommodate different individual needs and foster inclusivity. Identifying the Problem: The inception of Modulate was driven by a desire to improve online interactions. Originally exploring voice-changing technology, they pivoted to voice moderation after recognizing a critical market need for protecting users from harmful content in digital spaces. Customer-driven Development: The transition from voice transformation to voice moderation highlights the significance of listening to customer feedback and adapting the product to meet market demands effectively. Prosocial Voice Intelligence: Modulate's vision extends beyond voice safety, aiming to enable richer, more meaningful online interactions globally through prosocial voice intelligence. This ambition illustrates the broad impact that innovative technology can have on enhancing human connections in digital environments.

In this episode of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Eugene Puryear, host of Breakthrough News and the Punch-Out podcast and author of Shackled and Chained: Mass Incarceration in Capitalist America, to discuss apparent moves by the General Services Administration to begin the transition to a Joe Biden presidency, why current President Donald Trump would permit the process to begin, and why the news seems to show that Trump's efforts to maintain power beyond January have little support among the ruling class.In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Dr. Mike Pappas, a family medicine physician, activist, and frequent contributor to LeftVoice.org, to discuss his new article, "Capitalist Competition Is Sabotaging the Race for a Vaccine," how individualist and self-interested attitudes stifle the kind of collaboration needed to address a global public health crisis, and how the latest developments in the push to provide a COVID-19 vaccine show that claims that capitalism encourages innovation are mere wishful thinking.In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Zoe Pepper-Cunningham, a journalist with People's Dispatch, to discuss the massive protests which saw Guatemala's Congress burned on Saturday, the subsequent decision by the country's legislature to suspend efforts to foist widely-loathed budget on the Guatemalan people, and where the political situation there fits within the wave of resistance to neoliberal governments across Latin America.Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Eleanor Goldfield, a creative activist, journalist, co-host of the Common Censored podcast with Lee Camp and the filmmaker behind the new documentary “Hard Road Of Hope," to discuss the certification of Joe Biden's victory over Donald Trump in Pennsylvania by state election officials, how the healthcare industry is reaping record profits from the coronavirus pandemic, and why organization is the key to bringing about the kind of political system that puts people over profits.

Josh Hawley's denunciation of NBA players for embracing Black Lives Matter while failing to attack China, the fundamentally white supremacist and colonial nature of the #FreeHK movement and its reactionary backers in the US government, and where the response by the US ruling class to the largely-successful Hong Kill security bill fits into the right-wing campaign to bully Black communities into supporting anti-China separatism.In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by are joined by Jacqueline Keeler, Editor-in-chief of Pollen Nation Magazine and editor of Edge of Morning: Native Voices Speak for Bears Ears, to talk about the news that Washington, DC's NFL team has formally announced the end of their use of an anti-indigenous racial slur for their name, the centuries-long bonds of solidarity between those struggling for indigenous sovereignty and Black liberation, and how the ongoing nationwide uprising against police terror set the stage for this historic moment.Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by independent researcher Sam Menefee-Libey to talk about the "unrelenting" police brutality which continues across the US under cover a mainstream media blackout, why it's so crucial for revolutionary-minded activists to define the current political moment, and the massive backlash to Education Secretary Betsy Devos' defense of the Trump Administration's attempt to force kids and teachers back to school amid the pandemic.

In this episode of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined from New York City by Dr. Mike Pappas, a family medicine physician, activist, and frequent contributor to LeftVoice.org, to talk about how the lack of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is sickening doctors and patients alike throughout New York's hospitals, why he's not surprised by the 'disgusting' attempts to silence healthcare workers speaking out about the issue across the country, and how such tactics have enabled the medical-industrial complex to generate record profits in a time of global calamity. In the second segment Sean and Jacquie are joined by Leo Flores, Latin America Campaign Coordinator at CODE Pink, to talk about why the State Department's supposed offer of sanctions relief to Venezuela is actually an ultimatum intended to overthrow its elected president, and where this latest move by the Trump administration fits into the broader pattern of sabotaging talks between the Venezuelan government and more moderate factions of the opposition.In the third segment Sean and Jacquie are joined by technologist Chris Garaffa to talk about how the revelation that online meeting company Zoom lied about its end-to-end encryption services has led to an investigation by New York's attorney genera, how their platform's resulting susceptibility has led to a wave of racist and anti-Semitic attacks on its users, and simple steps those new to working from home can take to ensure their privacy isn't violated. Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by award-winning editorial cartoonist and columnist Ted Rall to talk about how Trump's refusal to allow Affordable Care Act enrollment to be reopened reveals the cruelty underlying the federal government's response to the pandemic, why the Joe Biden's credible sexual allegations against Joe Biden by a former staffer have been met with a total media blackout by mainstream liberal media outlets, why even a pandemic isn't enough to stop the constant accusations that accurate reporting by Chinese or Russian-backed media on the botched US response to the crisis constitutes disinformation, and whether the utterly insufficient response to the pandemic could lead to a mass progressive break with the Democratic party.

Clearing the FOG with co-hosts Margaret Flowers and Kevin Zeese
New York is the area hardest hit by the coronavirus currently in the United States with over 60,000 cases and over 1,000 deaths, ranking it as the sixth highest number of cases in the world. The area in and around New York City has the most cases. Governor Cuomo is scrambling for hospital beds and equipment. The Army Corps of Engineers has been called in to convert convention centers and other large spaces into temporary hospitals. A naval hospital ship is heading up from southern Virginia to provide support. The city is bringing in refrigerated trucks to store dead bodies and China is sending planeloads of medical supplies. We speak with Dr. Mike Pappas, who is working on the front line of this crisis about COVID-19, how health professionals are handling it, how it is exposing the flaws in our healthcare and economic systems and what systems would protect people.

Mike Pappas and Carter Huffman believe their invention fulfills the promise of the digital world: the complete freedom to design your identity. But what if we all used it? The human voice is a key marker of authenticity and individuality, and Modulate uses A.I to transform your voice into anything you want it to be. In real time. If you’re a woman and want to sound like a man, Modulate can help you. If you’re a teen and want to sound like a grandparent, Modulate can do that. If you’re from Italy but want to adopt a French accent, speak into Modulate, and you will. Should this exist? The gift of free expression also comes with a price. Yes: Modulate could allow people to be their true selves and speak in a voice that represents who they are. Yes: Modulate could expose institutional vocal bias against certain sounds and accents. But it also could contribute to the world of deep faking and harassment. At what point is digitizing our real-world identity too much?

Kevin and Mike talk about the creation of Dead Air Armament, his transition from mechanic to silencer guru, and retro 10/22's.
On today's episode of Loud & Clear, Walter Smolarek (sitting in for Brian Becker) and John Kiriakou are joined by Alexander Mercouris, the editor in chief of The Duran, and Daniel Lazare, a journalist and author of “The Frozen Republic,” “The Velvet Coup,” and “America's Undeclared War.”Russia has closed a US consulate and expelled 60 US diplomats, along with 90 diplomats from other countries, matching the US and EU actions earlier this month over the Sergei Skripal case. Meanwhile, British authorities say they’ve pinpointed the location where Russian double agent Skripal and his daughter were poisoned. The front door of the family’s home shows the highest concentration of a nerve agent in the class of Novichok. We’ll also look at developments in the Russiagate investigation. Today, the weekly series “Criminal Injustice” continues, where the hosts discuss the most egregious conduct of our courts and prosecutors and how justice is denied to so many people in this country. Today’s segment focuses on the school-to-prison pipeline and police killings. Kevin Gosztola, a writer for Shadowproof.com and co-host of the podcast Unauthorized Disclosure, and Paul Wright, the founder and executive director of the Human Rights Defense Center and editor of Prison Legal News, join the show. A historic meeting between South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is set for April 27 on the southern side of the Demilitarized Zone. This is the first time since 2007 that leaders of the two countries have met. No agenda has yet been agreed upon. Brian and John speak with Tim Shorrock, a Washington-based investigative journalist who grew up in Japan and South Korea and who is the author of “SPIES FOR HIRE: The Secret World of Outsourced Intelligence.” President Trump fired Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin and replaced him with Admiral Ronny Jackson, the president’s personal physician. Jackson has no management experience whatsoever, but will be charged with cleaning up a department in crisis. Shulkin was the only cabinet holdover from the Obama Administration. Ryan Endicott, an anti-war Iraq veteran and a graduate clinical intern mental health counselor for veterans. A judge in Massachusetts has found a group of 13 pipeline protesters not guilty of crimes related to a protest in which they climbed into holes that had been dug for a high-pressure gas pipeline. The 13 were the first of 198 people set to go on trial, including the daughter of former Vice President Al Gore. The judge said protest against climate change was a legal necessity. Kevin Zeese, the co-coordinator of Popular Resistance whose work is at popularresistance.org, joins Walter and John. The group Health Over Profit for Everyone, in partnership with the Backbone Campaign, is offering the first Single Payer Action Camp to build participants’ skills in strategy, messaging, and direct action to win improved Medicare for all. The camp will take place from April 7-10 in Washington. Mike Pappas, an organizer with the Single Payer Action Camp and a Georgetown University medical student, joins the show.A review of public documents by Politico reveals that the Trump Administration made a conscious decision to focus almost exclusively on Houston after it was hit by Hurricane Harvey last year, and to ignore Puerto Rico, which was harder hit three weeks later by Hurricane Maria. Politico said that disaster recovery experts have expressed shock at the double standard. Brian and John speak with Ruth Beltran, an organizer with Black Lives Matter Tampa.
