It's time to recognise that we live in an algorithm-driven society, where those who develop algorithms shape our worldview. Social media, once viewed as a way to bypass traditional media biases, has been mastered by hostile regimes like Russia and China. They are increasingly effective at influencing our daily decisions, worldview, and even national futures. Mykolas Katkus and Alfredas Chmieliauskas, co-founders of Repsense, leverage AI to analyse and understand narratives circulating online. At the LŪŽIO TAŠKAS/TIPPING POINT conference, they will discuss how democracies can upgrade their digital strategies to better compete in the ongoing algorithmic battles against disinformation empires.
