The rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning techniques have led to the creation of increasingly sophisticated visual misinformation, posing a multifaceted challenge for individuals, organizations, and democratic societies. The potential consequences of AI-generated visual content and propaganda, including the erosion of public trust in information and institutions, call for an urgent and collaborative response from industry, policy, and academic experts.
In this panel discussion, Renée DiResta, Santiago Lyon, and Samuel Woolley discuss the challenges and opportunities of visual generative AI and examine potential solutions for addressing the complex ethical, policy, and technical issues that lie at the heart of this rapidly evolving technology. The conversation is moderated by UVA professor Mona Kasra. Registration is required.
