Democracy is challenged when digital technology and disinformation leaves voters confused about who and what to believe.

TRUTH IN THE AGE OF AI: How AI systems generate realistic content and ways individuals can assess authenticity online presented by Dale Blasingame, an associate professor of practice in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas. Blasingame concludes that it is very difficult to judge "fakes" and it is only getting harder. The way to combat the problem is to become media literate. Blasingame says media literacy skills training should start with young children.

Join the Comal Area League and Dr. Blasingame for an informative evening at Seguin Public Library.
