AI, Algorithms and Media Literacy: Why are Ethics Important? Part 1

In the sixth episode of the Infodetox podcast, we will tell you how AI and algorithms work and how they affect our everyday lives. What is artificial intelligence, how it stores, analyzes and compares data, and why we have been living next to this technology for a long time. We will learn that AI is not only voice assistants or chatbots, but also mechanisms operating in our social networks, banking applications, educational platforms and even surveillance cameras. Oksana Polulyakh, a fact-checker for the StopFake.org project, will talk about the abuse of images created by AI to manipulate user emotions and promote disinformation narratives.
