What is misinformation? How can we spot it and avoid it? How has the emergence of artificial intelligence technology complicated how we evaluate information? 
In this webinar, hosted by Senior Planet and the News Literacy Project, we’ll explore current trends in misinformation and identify types of misleading, inaccurate and false information, whether AI-generated or human-made. We’ll also discuss the fundamentals of fact-checking, including how to debunk false images and videos.
