RAN Practitioners Update 112 | July 2023

Over the past couple of years we have seen the introduction of a range of new digital technologies and platforms.

With the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, such as Deepfake and ChatGPT, augmented realities and virtual realities (VR), including VR headsets and online video games, it is becoming increasingly difficult to draw a division between online and offline.

Meanwhile, with people spending more and more time in digital spaces, violent extremists are finding new opportunities to reach, radicalise and recruit people online.

In this edition of the RAN Practitioners Update we take a brief look at some of these challenges. To do this, the Update features the latest issue of the RAN Practitioners Spotlight magazine and the latest RAN Practitioners film, and highlights some of the key publications on the topic, which can be found on the RAN Practitioners website.
