10:30 am-11:30 am - AI & Disinformation
Disinformation refers to false information created to mislead people, and it's nothing new. But today's AI-powered tools and social media have made it easier and faster to create and spread disinformation.
In this lecture, we’ll explore how AI is used to create convincing deepfakes and clone voices, making it challenging to distinguish between real and fake content. We’ll also review best practices for evaluating information and explore tech tools that can help identify content
created with AI.
11:45 am-12:45 pm- Is this AI?
With the advances in artificial intelligence technology, AI programs can now create ultra-realistic images and videos. At first sight, it may be hard to tell if what you see was created or altered by AI.
In this session, we’ll teach you tips and
tools to help you determine if an image was generated by AI. We'll show you how to do a reverse image search to find out the internet history of any image you find online. While we can't definitively tell whether an image is AI, these tools will make you a tech savvy internet user.
1:00 pm-2:00 pm - Protecting Your Personal Information OnlinThis presentation will cover the ins and outs of how to protect your personal information online. We’ll cover tips for staying safe in cyberspace, like safe browsing, how to recognize online scams, and when it’s OK — or not — to share your personal information online.
