AI Inside

AI Inside explores what artificial intelligence really means for the world -- and for all of us. Hosted by tech journalist Jason Howell and media scholar Jeff Jarvis, the show delivers weekly coverage of the AI developments shaping technology, culture, and society, and conversations with leading researchers, builders, and thinkers. Jason brings decades of tech media experience at TWiT and CNET with a particular focus on how AI intersects with creativity and culture. Jeff is a respected voice on technology's influence on media and society, author of "The Web We Weave" and "The Gutenberg Parenthesis," and the voice behind BuzzMachine. Together they're working to build genuine public understanding of a technology that's changing everything.

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same.

This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
