Transatlantic Cable podcast, episode 111

Jeff and Dave discuss the reduction of human listening for Google Home, AI being used in schools, TikTok scams, and more.

On this week’s edition of the Kaspersky Transatlantic Cable podcast, Dave and I cross both the Atlantic and Pacific while discussing the week’s stories.

Episode 111 kicks off with a story about Facebook suspending tens of thousands of apps in the wake of the Cambridge Analytica scandal.

From there, we look at TikTok becoming the latest social media site targeted by dating scams. We then move along to Google announcing it has changed some policies tied to reducing the number of recordings from Google Home that will be listened to by humans.

The next story takes a look at a school in the UK that is starting to leverage AI to identify students who are being bullied or may cause self-harm. We close out the week with a look at parenting tips for those raising kids in the digital age.
