- Description
- As the June 2nd primary election nears in the race for Los Angeles Mayor, the conversation online has become dominated by a series of fan-created, AI-generated videos that portray Mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt in such heroic roles as Luke Skywalker and Batman, defending a dystopian Los Angeles from the likes of Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass. Mayor Karen Bass has condemned the viral videos, calling them "scary" and "violent," but despite the criticism the Los Angeles Times writes that some see them "as a harbinger of how artificial intelligence could reshape political messaging across the country." With more on the videos, tips on detecting the work of artificial intelligence, and whether regulations can put the genie back in the bottle, Micah Ohlman and Cher Calvin are joined by Dr. Chris Mattmann, international expert in A.I. and Machine Learning and Chief Data and Artificial Intelligence Officer at UCLA.
