How do we know what to trust in a world filled with misinformation, outdated headlines, hidden incentives, and AI-generated content?

In this episode of Intelligence Resources, Samantha Viola Wilson and Brittany George sit down with Aki, founder and CEO of Credible AI, to explore how artificial intelligence can help people evaluate information, identify bias, and make better-informed decisions.

Drawing on his experience at companies including Microsoft, Twitter, and Uber, Aki shares the inspiration behind Credible AI and its mission to build a credibility layer for the internet. The conversation covers misinformation, critical thinking, political bias in AI models, transparency in healthcare research, conflicts of interest, and the growing challenge of distinguishing credible information from persuasive content.

Aki also introduces Skim, a platform designed to help users quickly understand videos and articles, follow developing narratives, and surface the information that matters most to them or their businesses.

The conversation closes with a look at how AI could reshape social media, knowledge sharing, business intelligence, and even everyday routines like planning events and tracking fitness goals.
