| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | From deepfakes to GPT-3, deep learning is now powering a new assault on our ability to tell what's real and what's not, bringing a whole new algorithmic side to fake news. On the other hand, remarkable methods are being developed to help automate fact-checking and the detection of fake news and doctored media. Success in the modern business world requires you to understand these algorithmic currents and to recognize the strengths, limits, and impacts of deep learning---especially when it comes to discerning the truth and differentiating fact from fiction. This book tells the stories of this algorithmic battle for the truth and how it impacts individuals and society. In doing so, it weaves together the human stories and what's at stake here, a simplified technical background on how these algorithms work, and an accessible survey of the research literature exploring these various topics. How Algorithms Create and Prevent Fake News is an accessible, broad account of the multiple ways that data-driven algorithms have distorted reality and rendered the truth harder to grasp. From news aggregators to Google searches to YouTube recommendations to Facebook news feeds, the way we obtain information today is filtered through the lens of giant tech algorithms. How data is collected, labelled, and stored significantly impacts the machine learning algorithms trained. This is the primary source of algorithmic bias, amplified in harmful data feedback loops. Don't be afraid: with this book, you'll see the remedies and technical solutions applied to oppose these dangerous trends. There is hope |
