Tech's Pledge To Fight AI Election Interference & Twillio's woes with Segment | EP 6
Last week, 20 tech companies across Big Tech, social networks and AI providers signed a voluntary pledge to fight election interference from AI-generated content going through 2024. We dive into the timing of the announcement (2024 is a big election year across the globe), some recent deepfake mishaps, where should liability lie when bad things happen, and whether this pledge is enough. Bonus - couple of ideas for AI startups.
In the second half, we dive into Twillio's recent troubles, particularly with one of their large acquisitions from the past - Segment. We peel a few layers behind Twillio's original decision to buy Segment, what's changed since and what does future outlook look like for the company.
Follow us and join the conversation - every week, Viggy & James provide research-based deep dives on the latest news, company strategies and trends in tech.
