Truth and AI

TRUTH AND AI:
Practical Strategies for Misinformation, Disinformation, and Hallucinations
An "AI Essentials" Webinar with Crystal Trice

OVERVIEW

As AI-generated misinformation spreads—through fake images, manipulated videos, and convincing AI-written text—library staff are on the front lines of helping patrons make sense of what’s real and what’s not. This one-hour webinar will equip you with practical tools to identify deepfakes, explain them clearly to patrons and students, and respond with confidence when misinformation shows up in your library. You'll also explore ways to build information literacy into your everyday services through programming and one-on-one conversations. Whether you’re fielding questions at the desk or designing classes, you’ll leave with ready-to-use strategies that foster critical thinking and information literacy in your community.

LEARNING AGENDA:

  • Spotting AI-Generated Misinformation: Learn how to recognize common signs of AI-created fakes, from images to text to video.
  • Explaining Deepfakes to Patrons: Gain clear, non-alarmist language for helping patrons understand what deepfakes are and why they matter.
  • Building Trust Through Dialogue: Explore using misinformation questions as an opportunity to build trust and offer guidance.
  • Building Awareness through Library Services: Discover ways to embed media literacy into your services with training and conversation starters that meet patrons where they are.
