The Expert Podcast

• We’ve explored the risks of AI in employment and industry, but today, we're delving into a more subtle threat—addictive intelligence.
• This concept involves AI being used to manipulate our engagement with various platforms, from social media and news sites to print advertising.

• Unlike artificial intelligence focused on tasks and automation, addictive intelligence leverages psychological techniques to keep users engaged.
• Similar to how food producers have engineered products to be more addictive, AI can be used to make online and offline content more enticing.

• Just as certain foods are designed to create cravings through dopamine hits, AI can create content that captivates our visual and auditory senses.
• This includes using AI to craft engaging words, language, and inflections in podcasts, videos, and articles to increase user attraction.

• Our investigative division at ActiveIntel.com often deals with sophisticated fraud cases where scammers use advanced psychological tactics to deceive victims.
• With AI, these tactics could become even more effective, potentially manipulating users in ways they may not even realize.

• The effects might range from minor inconveniences, like spending extra time online, to more harmful outcomes where users are manipulated into dangerous behaviors or decisions.
• The ultimate goal of addictive intelligence is to keep users connected and engaged, potentially leading to harmful consequences.
