On episode 13 of Artificial Breakdown, recorded live at Inventures 2025, Carrie and Pete sit down with Chris Hogg, CEO of Digital Journal, one of Canada’s largest independent media companies.
We dive into how AI is transforming news delivery, and whether we should still trust our feeds (spoiler: it's complicated). Chris talks us through the wild, truth-bending landscape where journalism meets tech, and just how deep the rabbit hole of AI-powered media goes. Can AI tell fact from fiction? Does it even care? Tune in to find out.
If you’ve ever wondered how AI is messing with your news—and how to spot the real from the AI-generated—this episode is a must-listen!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
