  • Debunking Conspiracies This Thanksgiving? Let AI Help.
    Nov 29 2024
    Conspiracy theories can take many forms, from misgivings about the first moon landing to false claims that the 2020 election was stolen. These kinds of beliefs are nothing new, but social media has helped make many of them more mainstream. As anyone who’s tried to reason with a conspiracy theorist knows, it’s hard to debunk such deeply held beliefs – and arguing with a loved one about them can be emotionally taxing. What if an AI chatbot could help? A recent study, published in Science, asked that very question — and the results were surprising. Thomas Costello, an assistant professor of psychology at American University and co-author of the study, breaks down the findings. Follow Terms of Service, wherever you get your podcasts.

Nourishment

I have loved this podcast from the beginning! The variety of topics that truly are helpful and relevant compares to none other. His voice is warm, welcoming and sounds at home as I play the podcast in my home. He is part of the family now, having seen me through the pandemic and more. Thank you!
