Real interview for a TV documentary on #deepfakes & the impact of exposure to #misinformariom on health & wellbeing. The next #infodemic may be synthetic, but the same AI tech powering deep fakes may also become our strongest defence against them.

It’s a longer read, but one I’m proud of. https://t.co/bxzNleoKDm
