• #23: Reclaiming Truth in the Age of Algorithms - Brinleigh Murphy-Reuter

  In this episode of The Deep View Conversations, we dive into the chaotic world of social media, misinformation, and the growing need for scientific credibility with Brinleigh Murphy Reuter — founder of the Harvard-incubated nonprofit, Science to People. Brinleigh unpacks why it’s become so hard to find accurate health and science information online, and how her organization is using generative AI to fix the broken flow of facts between researchers, influencers, and everyday users.We explore everything from the overwhelming noise of algorithm-driven content and the dangers of viral misinformation, to how AI can empower creators with reliable, vetted science. If you’re curious about how tech, trust, and truth collide in the age of TikTok and ChatGPT, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.Get The Deep View — your daily source for in-depth, fact-based reporting on artificial intelligence — in your inbox every morning.
