Understanding and responding to everyday experiences with misinformation using a media literacy approach
Wednesday 8 October, 2-3pm, online
Online spaces are often experienced as fast-paced environments that present people with an overwhelming amount of information. However, most scholarly research about misinformation is removed from the complex reality of people’s everyday online experiences. So, how can media literacy initiatives be designed to help people identify, avoid and respond to misinformation?
Join Professor Tanya Notley and Dr Aimee Hourigan in this free online webinar as they share findings from this national research project, which has used multiple research methods to explore this question.
Delivered as part of the University of Canberra’s New and Media Research Centre’s Misinformation and Resilience Seminar Series.
The trust deficit: Decoding AI deepfakes and synthetic voices
Thursday 6 November, 6-7pm, Swinburne Studio, ACMI
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the way stories are told, how news is reported and content created. Once requiring extensive resources and skills, AI voice and deepfake technologies are now widely accessible, enabling creators and media professionals< to push boundaries in storytelling and communication.
This panel brings together three international experts in media literacy, journalism and conflict reporting to discuss the possibilities and perils at the heart of AI-driven communication. Covering topics such as deepfakes during climate disasters and voice cloning of politicians, this panel unpacks the complexities of truth and trust when media is so easy to fake.
This panel is facilitated in partnership with the ARC Centre of Excellence for Automated Decision Making and Society (ADM+S) and Swinburne University of Technology.
