AI is Activating Antisemites Left and Right - with Niall Ferguson
Can historians win the fight against antisemitism and viral misinformation in the age of AI? Historian Niall Ferguson joins Dan to warn that fact-based historians are losing the battle with social media algorithms that spread false and antisemitic content to increasingly receptive audiences on both the right and left. He argues the rules of the fight have changed.
