ABOUT THE EVENT

The internet is at an inflection point. With the growth of mis/disinformation, artificial intelligence and synthetic media, trust in information faces unprecedented threats. At the same time, new technologies – referred to as “Web 3” – present opportunities to protect the integrity of data. Rapid advances in cryptography hold the promise of allowing users to establish the provenance and veracity of information and restore trust in digital content. Can these solutions be applied to investigative journalism, historical archiving, or the admissibility of legal evidence?

In this workshop, co-hosted by the Starling Lab for Data Integrity and the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI), we will ask: How might we design information systems for authenticity? We will bring together technologists, journalists, legal experts and archivists, for an interdisciplinary conversation about declining trust in digital content and how we might bolster trust in our information ecosystems. What comes next for technologists and practitioners in Journalism, Law and Archiving?

Participants will have an opportunity to not only address discipline-specific issues but also identify cross-over opportunities that address AI’s growing societal impact, technical advancements, public perceptions and geopolitical dynamics. You will come away with a clear understanding of what’s at stake and how each discipline might design for authenticity – separately and/or collaboratively.
