Take the Tik Tok Ban or No Ban Challenge! - DTNS 4486
Channel: Daily Tech News Show
Date: 28/03/2023

Generative AI is disrupting the professions of writers, artists, coders and now audiobook narrators. We explore this with tech journalist Erin Carson. Plus we take a look at the “RESTRICT Act'' from Senators Mark Warner of Virginia and John Thune of South Dakota. The latest bill designed to curb TikTok in the US. And we explain what’s happening with verified Twitter accounts after Elon Musk’s tweet on Monday.

Starring Tom Merritt, Erin Carson, Roger Chang, Joe.
