The truth is based on facts and enables conversations and arguments revolving around all subjects of life, BUT, the concept of truth, as we know it is dead, or at least dying. 

Truth has been challenged throughout history, from the days of Kain and Abel.  

In recent years social media, and the democratization of content creation tools has put truth under more pressure, but still extensive massive truth manipulation required resources who can only be obtained by governments and large corporations.

All this changed with the introduction of generative AI. Tools like:
💥 ChatGPT
💥 Mijourney
💥 Dall-e
💥 Runway
Enables anyone to create highly realistic documents, images and videos of events and "facts" that never existed. This will practically enable anyone to create their own truth to promote any agenda.

You may think that there would be tools that would allow us to detect AI-generated content, but so far, these tools are falling short of being reliable. In the best-case scenario, there will be an arms-race between detection tools and manipulation tools, and the manipulation tools would always be ahead.

In this episode, you will learn more about the current AI tools, the capabilities they bring, and the implication it has on the concept of truth.
