Register now: Conference on Disinformation and Verification Technologies on 23.11.23 at the House of Broadcasting in Berlin
How can we stay ahead in the cat and mouse game of AI-based counterfeiting and verification technologies? The news-polygraph research alliance will address this question in its kick-off event on 23.11.23.
Together with you, we will explore the tension between counterfeiting and detection and ask ourselves how to stay ahead in today’s cat and mouse game of AI-based counterfeiting and verification technologies.
We want to get to know your requirements, present our plans for the development of new tools and talk to you. You can expect a curated day with expert presentations in German and English as well as discussions with relevant players such as dpa Deutsche Presse-Agentur GmbH-Faktencheck, the ARD political magazine Kontraste, the Medienanstalt Berlin-Brandenburg (mabb) and #Faktenfuchs from Bayerischer Rundfunk.
