BASELINE exposes the truth behind AI’s unstoppable rise. In-depth interviews with AI experts, real analysis, and insights you can trust on the technology reshaping our world.
In this episode of BASELINE, we’re joined once again by Ross Parrett, who brings his sharp insights into global AI developments, media control, and digital rights. As AI continues to shape what we see, hear, and believe, Ross breaks down the latest global news, offering a thought-provoking perspective on its impact.
With his deep knowledge of ethics, technology, and free speech, we explore whether AI is becoming a tool for control or empowerment—from Apple’s stance on encryption and government surveillance of federal workers to the growing influence of AI in shaping media narratives. This is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
