Disinformation and Misinformation in the Age of Generative AI

The rapid rise of generative AI (GenAI) technologies has revolutionized the way content is created and disseminated. As a result, highly convincing human-like malicious content including disinformation, misinformation, and propaganda can now be easily produced and distributed across the web. The diversity of generation models combined with various manipulation strategies applied to different modalities presents significant challenges for fact-checking systems and content moderation. To address this issue, we organize a workshop that focuses on harmful content that has been created intentionally (disinformation) and unintentionally (misinformation) in the era of generative AI. The workshop features specialized tracks on multimodal solutions, investigating narratives, trustworthy AI systems, and policy interventions. By bringing together experts from computer science and law, the workshop offers a comprehensive framework for combating fake content online.
