Each week, CNN Tech Writer Clare Duffy will break down how these technologies work and what they’ll mean for your life in terms that don’t require an engineering degree to understand. And we’ll empower you to start experimenting with these tools, without getting played by them.

| Got Kids? Think Before You Post. | 12 Nov 2024 | 00:28:06 | |
As a new generation of kids grows up, many of them have had their childhoods posted online for the world to see. And not all of them are happy about it. This raises important questions for parents: how much should you share your kids’ lives on social media? When should you think twice before hitting “post”? Leah Plunkett, author of the book Sharenthood: Why We Should Think Before We Talk About Our Kids Online, has thought a lot about this — both as a lawyer and as a parent. She gives Clare some pointers about online privacy for kids.
If you’re a parent or have kids in your life, we want to hear from you. Do you have rules of the road for how much you share your kids online? Email us at CNNTermsofService@Gmail.com.

| Deepfake Revenge Porn Is Rising: What Can You Do? | 12 Nov 2024 | 00:26:38 | |
A new kind of deepfake revenge porn is sweeping the internet. Using artificial intelligence, bad actors can do things like superimpose your face on a nude body, creating convincing and harmful images. Tech companies and lawmakers are trying to play catch up, but the truth is these tools are still easy to access. So how can you and your loved ones stay safe from this dangerous technology? Carrie Goldberg, a lawyer specializing in digital harassment and sex crimes, has some answers.
If you've had someone create deepfakes of you, or if you're a parent and this happened to your child, we'd appreciate hearing from you about how you handled it. Email us at CNNTermsofService@Gmail.com.

| Why It Feels Like Your Phone Is Listening to You | 19 Nov 2024 | 00:27:56 | |
It’s a familiar feeling if you spend enough time on the internet: you talk about something in the real world, and then you see that same thing advertised to you online. This uncanny experience has led many people to wonder: are our devices listening to us? And is that how online advertisers are able to serve such specific ads? David Choffnes, associate professor at Northeastern University, says it’s not that simple.

| Debunking Conspiracies This Holiday Season? Let AI Help. | 26 Nov 2024 | 00:26:57 | |
Conspiracy theories can take many forms, from misgivings about the first moon landing to false claims that the 2020 election was stolen. These kinds of beliefs are nothing new, but social media has helped make many of them more mainstream. As anyone who’s tried to reason with a conspiracy theorist knows, it’s hard to debunk such deeply held beliefs – and arguing with a loved one about them can be emotionally taxing. What if an AI chatbot could help? A recent study, published in Science, asked that very question — and the results were surprising. Thomas Costello, an assistant professor of psychology at American University and co-author of the study, breaks down the findings.

| If TikTok is Banned, What Happens to Creators and Fans? | 07 Jan 2025 | 00:20:45 | |
TikTok is facing a looming ban in the United States. The company will make a final effort to argue its case before the Supreme Court on Friday; if it loses, the law forcing TikTok to spin off from its China-based parent company or be banned in the United States is set to go into effect on January 19. Will that mean the app disappears from users’ phones overnight? Eva Galperin, director of cybersecurity at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, breaks down what the ban would look like for users, in practical terms. And influencers Eli Rallo and Joanne Molinaro, aka The Korean Vegan, share what it would mean for people who make a living from the app.

Carlos Hernández-Echevarría, head of public policy at fact checking organization Maldita.es, explains how the group fact-checks posts – and what happens to that content after they do.

And is there anything we can do as individuals to reduce the impact of our AI use? Sasha Luccioni, the Climate and AI Lead at Hugging Face, has some answers.

| What Happens to Your Digital Footprint When You Die? | 18 Feb 2025 | 00:29:16 | |
Many of us have seen this happen. Someone dies IRL, but their online presence lives on. It’s estimated that millions of accounts on Facebook belong to people who have died.

So, what “digital remains” are we leaving behind when we die? And how do we ensure our loved ones have the tools to manage it? Psychologist Elaine Kasket walks us through how to think about all the data that does not get buried with you.
Elaine is the author of All The Ghosts in the Machine: The Digital Afterlife of Your Personal Data.
As discussed in the episode, more guidelines on this are available on the Digital Legacy Associations’ website. And here’s how you can set up legacy contacts for your Meta, Google, and Apple accounts.
