Everyone’s lit up with AI advancements, but what about our privacy? Erin Sparks and Michael Lewittes dive into the ethics and privacy concerns surrounding AI, shedding light on the rapid information exchange and the potential risks looming over our data.

Explore how hedge funds are making daring AI moves, with new platforms demanding personal information in return for supposedly superior features. The question lingers: Are we too quick to exchange privacy for convenience? 

Michael shares insights on discerning fact from fiction in AI-generated content and offers advice for content creators striving to stand out in a saturated market. His expert analysis offers a roadmap to uphold authenticity and authority in a sea of homogenized content.

Alongside, the EDGE team muses about the consumer's role in safeguarding personal data against the intrusive AI gaze. Emphasizing the mantra "verify, then trust," they urge listeners to sharpen critical thinking in the flood of AI-generated content.
