Quote of the Week...

Food for Thought...

The BBC recently presented a program on Deep Fake technology that MIT faculty are working on. The hope is that they can reveal how easily Deep Fakes can dupe us, as well as show how these lies can be recognized and revealed. Surely, the brave new world we are entering requires the latter. The MIT faculty use the Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin moon landing as the fake. Imagine a world where the moon landing occurred, but instead of the triumphal return of the two astronauts, the lunar module was destroyed upon the landing. The two men, in this scenario, are stranded. They will die on the lunar surface. In real life, President Richard Nixon’s staff anticipated this terrible possibility, and William Safire wrote one of the most memorable speeches never given. (You can read his powerful speech at the end of this reflection, and you can watch a short synopsis of the MIT project here.To read more, click here. . .
