Welcome to the Pieces AI productivity podcast, where we dig into how experts use AI to be more productive, as well as geeking out in general on different AI topics.⚖️ In todays episode, Jim talks to Jerome Hardaway, director of youth engagement and counter-disinformation at Civic Influencers. Jerome is using a range of AI tools to detect mis- and disinformation in online content, and help young people in the 18-29 demographic get access to factual information to help them make informed choices as they engage with politics, rather than follow the opinions of influencers who may be intentionally spreading disinformation.Jerome discusses how young people get their information and viewpoints from social media, rather than traditional news sources, trusting people due to having similar tastes in food, clothing, or technology, rather than trusting more reputable sources and doing factual research. Jerome talks about how he uses AI to sport patterns, and literally sees trends in data spiking from events in popular culture, such as how an episode of love is blind can cause young people to discuss if it is ok to lie to a partner about who you are.🌐 Links:Connect with Jerome on LinkedInFollow Jerome on BlueskyCivic InfluencersVets who code👉 Try Pieces for free: ⁠https://pieces.app⁠💡 Learn more about Pieces features: ⁠https://pieces.app/features⁠Connect with Pieces:X: ⁠https://x.com/getpieces⁠Bluesky: ⁠https://bsky.app/profile/getpieces.bsky.social⁠LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/getpieces/⁠Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/getpieces/⁠Discord: ⁠https://pieces.app/discord⁠In this episode:0:00:00 - Intro0:01:29 - Misinformation and Disinformation on social media0:08:21 - Can AI understand the language used by youth cultures?0:10:29 - How ad data from TikTok is better than research data0:13:59 - Influencers blame their audiences for not doing research, and are happy to spread disinformation for money0:16:38 - Using psy-ops techniques from the CIA to influence people0:22:51 - Youth trusts social media rather than doing basic research0:29:13 - Analyzing viewpoints on acceptable behaviors based off Love is Blind and toxic masculinity0:41:18 - How to bring factual information to social media through overlays or empowering influencers0:52:14 - To spread trust, you need human interaction0:57:38 - What is ‘truth’?1:03:53 - Data tells the story of truth, such as racial discrimination in the US Marine Corps via rules on shaving
