Leadership in a World of AI-Driven Narrative Conflict + Misinformation
Misinformation is one of the top risks for global leaders this year, as narratives used as weapons could disrupt elections worldwide, according to the World Economic Forum. These threats also pose a significant danger to businesses, with top companies and brands seeing material impact. While misinformation is not a new problem for society, artificial intelligence, generative AI and social media are accelerating the chaos it causes with unprecedented speed and impact, normalizing polarization and divisiveness.
As a leader, it is crucial to understand how to mitigate the impact of these increasingly pervasive online attacks.
We invite you to join our upcoming session, where Chris Perry, Chairman Futures at Weber Shandwick, Wasim Khaled, CEO of Blackbird.AI and Andrey Simonov, Gary Winnick and Martin Granoff Associate Professor of Business at Columbia Business School, will discuss the methods, actors, and cases that highlight this challenge and provide insights on how to better prepare for them.
Our speakers have been at the forefront of combating fake news and the rise of mis- and disinformation, as well as helping corporations improve their preparedness since 2016. Perry recently published a book “Perspective Agents,” which investigates the implications of algorithms and AI on business planning, leadership, and resilience.
