Protecting Democracy in the Age of Social Media and AI

4/18/24

How can we protect democracy from the spread of misinformation and disinformation? On April 17, we were joined by Diane Chang, Entrepreneur-in-Residence at the Brown Institute for Media Innovation at Columbia Journalism School and the former head of Election Integrity Product Strategy at Meta, to discuss the effect of social media and AI on elections. Watch the recording above and check out the presentation slides.

This virtual event is the second in a series of League webinars where noted authorities will speak on relevant topics leading up to the U.S. Presidential Election on Tuesday, November 5. Presented by LWVIL’s Misinformation and Disinformation Task Force, the series is part of an effort to provide tools and resources that educate voters.
