We’re drowning in “news.” This isn’t the same information war anymore

Truth is a scarce commodity. The information war we’re part of is taking on a new dimension as technology advances. The use of artificial intelligence to generate deepfakes or run automated disinformation campaigns has caused false content to reach us with unprecedented force and precision. It is therefore worth considering how to effectively filter out toxic information and build resilience across society. This is particularly important because our adversaries fully understand the significance of information as a tool of influence, and the efforts of platforms responsible for filtering such content have not been effective.
