This conference session on Empowering Minds: Navigating Media Literacy in the Age of AI will explore the growing importance of media literacy as artificial intelligence continues to shape the way we consume and interact with information. The session will cover how AI influences media, from algorithms curating our content to deepfakes altering our perception of reality. Participants would engage in discussions and activities to critically evaluate media, understand AI’s role in shaping narratives, and develop the skills to discern credible information from misinformation. This topic is more crucial than ever as the rise of AI-driven media can amplify biases, misinformation, and ethical challenges, making it vital for individuals (especially in education) to navigate the digital landscape with critical awareness and confidence.
