With the TADAM project – Tools & Awareness about Disinformation, Algorithms and Media – IAME and 8 other European partners have come together to raise awareness of the impact of AI and algorithms in the media.
The main aim of TADAM is to exchange best practice and design educational resources specifically linked to the issue of the impact – both positive and negative – of artificial intelligence and algorithms in the media, the production of news and the way it is received by the public.
The first physical event of the TADAM project will take place on 12th June 2024 in Louvain-La-Neuve, near Brussels, in Belgium.
Exploring Frontiers: Enhancing Media and Information Literacy in an AI-Driven World
As IAME member, the TADAM consortium invites you to take part in its European cross-perspective seminar, which aims to examine the challenges of media and information literacy in the context of the rapid development of AI and its uses.
The aim of the seminar is to provide input for the project on a whole range of issues, starting with the skills needed by users and ways of developing them, the dangers but also the opportunities in terms of disseminating information and around the information and journalism professions, while not forgetting to include more cross-cutting reflections on ethics, creativity and issues of diversity, equity and inclusion.
The seminar will combine expert input with interactive sessions.
We look forward to seeing you there.
