The host, Alex, probes Campbell Brown on her statement that AI models can be 'bent towards a certain political ideology.' This raises concerns about AI's potential to influence the political landscape. Brown acknowledges this concern, tying it back to the broader issue of ensuring the quality and neutrality of information provided by AI systems.
“But, um, you know, you were talking about, um, the AI models, and I'm really interested to hear you unpack this, this idea of the AI models themselves kind of influencing the political landscape.

Um, and you know, you're somebody again, who's like, been on all sides of this. So I'm actually curious to hear where you think this is going.”
