Will AI stop misinformation? With Georgie Barrat and Paul Lee

All day, every day, we can access masses of information at the touch of a button. Or the sound of a voice command.   However, we can access a lot of misinformation too.   We've all seen examples of deepfakes, online scams and misinformation shape the headlines – and then become the headlines. The most common conclusion? It's AI's fault.   Would it surprise you that 70% of us are concerned about the use of deepfakes, data privacy issues, security risks and the spread of misinformation? And although the cause of these issues is multi-faceted, there's no doubt that their association with AI is impacting our opinion of the technology.
