About

Deceptive uses of digital media and technology have become woven into the fabric of business, society and media. As powerful people, companies and institutions embrace AI and other online manipulation tactics – how are we supposed to know if what we're seeing is real or entirely fabricated?

Join award-winning journalist and leading expert on online disinformation, Craig Silverman, as he explores how platforms and tech giants have failed to implement meaningful oversight on AI technology and its use. Through real-world examples and case studies, he'll unpack the tactics being used, who and what are driving them, and the risks they pose to trust and informed public debate.
