The Possibility of AI Being Used in Propaganda

Ehsan Ahmad is a researcher and expert on the intersection of artificial intelligence, media manipulation, and information warfare who appeared on JRE episode 2050 to discuss how AI technologies are being weaponized for propaganda purposes. With a background in understanding both the technical capabilities and psychological vulnerabilities that make AI-generated disinformation so effective, Ahmad brought serious analysis to Joe's show about the political and social implications of these emerging tools. The conversation covered how conspiracy theories spread through AI-enhanced content, the psychology behind why people fall for synthetic media, and what the near future might look like as these technologies become more sophisticated and harder to detect.
