Leopold Meeting Room

With AI generated content becoming more advanced, it is harder than ever to tell what is real. This session will explore AI and Deepfake content online and introduce strategies on identifying fakes.

There is a lot of AI generated content online. Every day it becomes harder to tell the difference between real images and ones that have been created using AI or Deepfake technology. This session will investigate strategies for identifying what is AI generated online.

This is the third of a series of three workshops; the first is Is This Fake News? Knowing Your Sources Online and the second is Can I Trust It? Assessing Websites. These may be attended separately or together.
