Academic Alliance for AI Policy (AAAIP) inaugural panel discussion !

This expert discussion will critically analyze the evolving landscape of misinformation, focusing on the role of deepfakes and AI-driven content. The panel will discuss a rigorous, evidence-based discussion with diverse academic insights from psychology, communications, public policy, and political science. Topics include trends in misinformation, the effectiveness of mitigation strategies like fact-checking and media literacy, the impact of foreign influence operations, and what we know or don't know yet based on the most up-to-date academic literature. Given the focus of the AAAIP on providing non-partisan evidence to inform policy, the conversation will also highlight actionable policy recommendations for addressing these challenges. We welcome participation from policymakers, academics and analysts, civil society, industry actors, students, and the broader public.
