Welcome to Event Horizon, the podcast that cuts through the hype and fear to bring you clear, practical understanding of artificial intelligence.
I’m Travis de Jonk — digital strategist, ethicist, broadcast journalist, transformation expert and long-time futurist. After 20+ years inside newsrooms, entertainment networks and public health systems, I’ve created this series to raise digital literacy and give you the truth about AI: what it is, how it works, and why it affects every part of your life.
In this episode:
✔ Why AI isn’t new — and why you’ve been using it for years
✔ The hidden motivations that built modern AI
✔ Why everything online is manufactured
✔ The difference between what AI is vs. what people think it is
✔ Why digital literacy is now a survival skill
✔ And what’s coming in future episodes — including “Is AI conscious?”
