About this listen
What if the truth could be edited?
In a world of AI deepfakes, fake news, and manipulated media, how do we know what's real anymore? Blend science fiction and foresight in this mind-bending episode of ThrowForward Thursday, inspired by The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
Douglas Adams' classic story predicted today's world - crowdsourced "truths," social networks, and reality distortion fields long before they existed.
In this episode, Graeme unpacks what The Hitchhiker's Guide can teach us about:
- - AI-generated misinformation and deepfakes
- - The manipulation of truth in media and politics
- - Why scepticism and curiosity are leadership superpowers
- - How to lead with clarity when facts are contested
If you're a leader, educator, or curious thinker trying to make sense of our post-truth world, this one's for you.
What You'll Learn
- - How Douglas Adams foresaw our information-saturated future
- - The connection between AI, social media, and "reality distortion fields"
- - Ways to stay sceptical without losing trust or hope
- - How to build credibility and clarity in confusing times
- - Why humour, humility, and courage matter in leadership today
