Part 7/9:
One of the more unsettling stories this week involved AI technology. Former CNN host Jim Acosta garnered outrage after conducting an AI interview with an avatar of a deceased Parkland shooting victim to promote gun control. Ksha called this "sick" and "exploitative," criticizing the media for crossing ethical boundaries by using AI to mimic a murdered child for political purposes.
He argued that exploiting such tragedies for political agendas dehumanizes victims and distorts public perception. The incident highlights the potential misuse of AI as a tool for emotional manipulation, raising serious ethical concerns about its role in media and society.
