A panel discussion hosted by the University Librarian, Beth Sandore Namachchivaya, featuring librarians Brie McConnell and Kate Mercer, and associate professor and director of Waterloo's U&AI Lab, Lai-Tze Fan.
Misinformation. Disinformation. Malinformation. Navigating the vast amounts of information we encounter daily has never been more challenging. From social media to AI, information is spreading faster than many of us can keep up, let alone determine its authenticity and quality.
In this discussion, the panelists will cover:
- Confirmation bias
- Information
- Data literacy
- Developing AI confidence
Learn how to navigate social media with more confidence and understand the basics of large language models so you can discern the limits of your trust.
