Nobel Conference 2021

Nobel Conference 57 – Big Data REvolution

Wendy presents at the Nobel Conference on Beyond Verification. How do we reduce the spread of misinformation and disinformation? What makes any piece of info true? Fact checking alone is inadequate to such a task. Wendy Chun is working with a deeply multidisciplinary team of researchers that includes everyone from data analysts to dramaturgs, to develop a model that can answer that question, developing new ways to displace fake news. The project, called “Beyond Verification,” is part of the Digital Democracies Institute.
