SUMMARY:Baker Briefing Live: AI\, Ethics\, and Global Competition
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Baker Briefing Live to discuss how AI\, ethics\, and global competition will shape our future.\n\n\nIn the past decade\, generative artificial intelligence has evolved from a niche research topic into a powerful\, mainstream tool.

In this live recording of the Baker Briefing podcast\, Ambassador David Satterfield\, director of the Baker Institute\, and Dr. Moshe Y. Vardi\, a leading expert in computational engineering\, discuss AI’s societal impact—its potential for misuse\, such as spreading misinformation and creating deep fakes.

SUMMARY:Can Media Literacy Combat Misinformation?
DESCRIPTION:Misinformation poses significant risks to democracy\, public health\, and social stability. Find out more from Dr. Badrinathan’s Research!\n\n\nMisinformation poses significant risks to democracy\, public health\, and social stability. Since 2016\, numerous media literacy initiatives have been introduced in classrooms worldwide\, with substantial investments aimed at improving misinformation outcomes. But how effective are these efforts? To address this question\, Dr. Badrinathan presents research from a large-scale media literacy initiative in India\, conducted in partnership with a state government agency. A field experiment across 600 classrooms in 583 villages\, involving 13\,500 students\, tested the impact of a four-month curriculum designed to build critical thinking skills\, shift norms\, and improve knowledge about health misinformation among the most vulnerable. As governments seek long-term strategies to combat misinformation\, these findings underscore the potential of sustained\, classroom-based education. \n \nJoin Professor Badrinathan and CAS professor Tom Costello to discuss this important topic! \nApril 18th at 12:00pm \nRoom SIS 300 \nLunch provided \n \nProfessor Badrinathan works on misinformation\, media\, and politics\, with a regional focus on South Asia. Her research spans three substantive areas. (1) Countering misinformation: How can we make citizens more resilient to falsehoods? (2) Accountability for misinformation: How do we hold elites responsible for spreading false information? (3) Impacts of misinformation: What are the political and societal consequences of misinformation on violence\, prejudice\, and quality of democracy?Methodologically\, she relies on field experiments\, original surveys\, and primary data collection. She often collaborate with civil society organizations and government institutions to design projects that evaluate policy impacts and produce actionable evidence. Her latest project involves a long-term randomized controlled trial providing education on misinformation to over 13\,000 schoolchildren across nearly 600 villages in India. \nHer work has appeared in academic journals such as the American Political Science Review (x2) as well as popular press such as The Washington Post. It has also been featured on podcasts such as Scope Conditions and Grand Tamasha\, as well as Indian media outlets like The Hindu\, Scroll\, and Hindustan Times.Prior to SIS\, Professor Badrinathan earned a PhD in Political Science from the University of Pennsylvania and was a postdoc fellow at the University of Oxford. \n \nThomas Costello is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at American University.
