Deep Fakes | The AI Talk Show with Asha Saxena featuring Besa Bauta

This episode of “The AI Talk Show,” hosted by Asha Saxena, brings forward a compelling conversation with Besa Bauta, Chief Information Officer (CIO), Jewish Board of Family and Children’s Services, on one of the most urgent frontiers in AI today: Deep Fake and Synthetic Media. As the generative AI market accelerates toward a projected $109B by 2030, the episode invites viewers to explore a question reshaping society and business alike: What happens when we can no longer trust what we see?

The discussion opens the door to the fast-evolving world of face-swapping apps, viral synthetic videos, and the race to build tools that can detect—or outsmart—AI-generated content. But it also challenges viewers to look beyond the risks, uncovering how synthetic media could transform education, communication, accessibility, and creative expression in ways we’re only beginning to imagine.

From the widening regulatory gap to the surprising positive applications emerging across industries, this episode encourages leaders to rethink authenticity, opportunity, and the role AI will play in shaping how we communicate, learn, and engage with the world.
