Is That A Fact? News Literacy and Fact Verification in the Age of AI Online
How can librarians help patrons find the facts in a sea of misinformation? How does AI complicate matters, and when might it be an effective tool? In this presentation, Dr. Laura Saunders will discuss the current state of misinformation and demonstrate research-based strategies for verifying information, including lateral reading and the SIFT method. She’ll also discuss how AI contributes to the misinformation problem, as well as tips for how AI might be used effectively as a starting point for fact-verification. Register here.
