Library Friends Webinar : FIGHTING DEEP FAKES AND HALLUCINATIONS: The Library's Response to AI

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming how we discover and share information. In this evolving technological landscape, the University Library has taken a leading role in helping our community understand generative AI and its responsible use. As part of these efforts, we are training faculty, students, and staff to identify and evaluate AI-generated content. This talk will provide a beginner-friendly overview of how AI tools interpret pictures and sound to generate new images, videos, and voices. We'll explore how these techniques are used in research, the film industry, and across campus to support new scholarship and creative work. Additionally, we’ll discuss strategies for recognizing deep fakes and tools to protect your own image and voice.
