Misinformation and disinformation - detecting fakes with AI

Speaker: Ephraim Berkovitch

Description We will discuss the AI systems that can help identify fakes of different types, principles behind the AI-based methodologies employed by automated deception detectors, clickbait detectors, satirical fake detectors, rumor debunkers and computational fact-checking tools. We will trace the evolution of such state-of-the-art AI over the past decade. What rates of success can we expect of such systems? What are the next steps in improvements, collaboration and integration of various approaches? The first lecture will be devoted to the concepts and demonstration of existing tools, while at the second one we will develop a minimalistic fact-checking tool from scratch.
