Manning, who has experienced homelessness, joining the military, and going to prison for leaking military documents to WikiLeaks, warned of the motives behind the rapid development of AI technology and the potential commoditization of everyday life. She also cautioned about the rise of AI-generated deepfakes, which could influence elections or fuel hate online. Manning proposed the use of cryptography to verify information, as it appeals to her passion for securing information and building decentralized cryptographically based networks. #AI #Cryptography #Privacy #DataProtection
