About The Episode

This week’s episode explores deepfake technology, which I know a few of you listeners already know about. However as you will hear in today’s discussion, deepfakes are actually part of a larger trend of Synthetic media, or media that has been created with AI’s help. 

I am joined by Victor Riparbelli CEO and co-founder of Synthesia technologies to discuss this topic and shed some light on the future of how content will be created in the future and what impacts we can expect. 

Personally, I really enjoyed this conversation. Victor clearly lays out the possible benefits and negative repercussions of synthetic media in an easy to digest way. And his enthusiasm for the subject was quite contagious as it became more and more clear what this trend will hold in the near future. I hope you think the same while listening.
