Doxing and Community Cohesion: Does AI Separate Us?

In this episode of The Intelligent Community, ICF Co-Founder Lou Zacharilla speaks with Jacob Ward, Author of The Loop.

What are the corrosive impacts of AI? Are there ways to offset some of the more negative trends in our communities and make technologies instruments of joy rather than menaces?

What causes acted-out anger against mayors, council members, school boards, jurists and journalists? What is at the root of this community fragmentation?  

In this first episode of the ICF’s series on doxxing, we begin a conversation with Jacob Ward, author of The Loop.  Mr. Ward is best-known to Americans for his stint as the on-air correspondent for NBC News, covering the intersection of technology, human behavior, and social change for the Nightly News and The TODAY Show.  Mr. Ward and Lou discuss the degree to which AI, social anxiety and the isolation of the digital world have exploited peoples’ behavior and eroded a community’s more “wholesome” activities. Is this leading to doxing – while also potentially becoming a tool for positive change? It’s an entirely new way to look at our future.
