White House Correspondents Insider

Honored to interview Vice Admiral Frank Whitworth for the Washington AI Network podcast where we discussed AI’s Role in National Security, Intelligence, Competition with China, AI’s Use in Warfare, and the promise of advanced AI models that can analyze visual data.

Important words on on combating AI-generated deep fakes and visual misinformation:

“The issue of validation is very important. I appreciate your asking that. So one of the things that we do have is a group of people dedicated to open source imagery. And there's a lot of it out there. And as you know, an image can be very powerful. Especially if it's misleading and, and the consumer doesn't realize that. So what we do is we go through, and it's typically from social media. It might be through press. But typically the stuff you want to double-check is that stuff that comes through unevaluated press or some social media that may not be as reputable. But if it's really important, then we will actually put that product out with a validation index. So we're looking for other indications of maybe some manipulation, some forensics in there. We're looking for evidence on the ground that's not quite right relative to what we know is on the ground. And I tasked them about a year ago, this team, I said, ‘Hey, don't just put it out as a little product. Put a scale on there." One, invalid. Absolutely not. We're finding things inconsistent with reality, inconsistent with the truth. Five, valid. Everything seems to be checking. I have found that our consumers have really enjoyed at least having a hint of whether that's something that is correct or not.”
