In this episode, we delve into the adverse effects of AI-generated images on media and their growing impact. We'll discuss the recent controversy over Levi's partnership with LalaLand.ai and debate if AI-inclusive modeling serves as a positive force. Furthermore, we'll examine the white savior narrative issues in the film AIR, directed by Ben Affleck and starring Matt Damon, and consider the significant influence of movies and TV on culture.

Segment 1: The AI and Race Dilemma

Jack and Mike investigate the concerns surrounding AI-generated images and their influence on race, society, and trust in journalism, media, and advertising. They highlight examples like the Pope donning a Balenciaga puffer and the fabricated Donald Trump arrest photos. The conversation also covers the backlash against Levi's partnership with LalaLand.ai, a company specializing in AI-generated diverse and inclusive models, and questions the potential advantages or disadvantages of AI-inclusive modeling on society.

Segment 2: The White Savior Complex of AIR

The hosts tackle the contentious movie AIR, directed by Ben Affleck and featuring Matt Damon, arguing that such films represent "white Hollywood propaganda" that perpetuates damaging white savior narratives, particularly in a post-George Floyd era. They advocate for increased creativity and sensitivity when addressing stories and characters of color.

The Brown & Black podcast, a 2023 Webby Nominee in the Best DE&I Episode Category, examines race and pop culture. Hosted by two distinct film and culture critics – one Latino and one Black – it aims to redefine how pop culture news and opinions are presented in America. Jack Rico and Mike Sargent interview Latino and Black filmmakers, actors, musicians, and artists to dissect the intricate relationship between entertainment and race.
