This podcast critiques the concept of "responsible AI" as currently promoted by major tech companies, particularly focusing on Meta as a case study. Corporate claims about ethical AI often mask concerning practices, drawing parallels to historical examples from the food and tobacco industries. The discussion emphasizes how institutional influence, monopolistic practices, and overstatement of AI capabilities contribute to a form of corporate gaslighting. The speaker advocates for independent oversight, critical thinking, and balanced regulation as solutions.
