WITNESS is joining the new ‘Steering Committee on AI and Media Integrity’ of the Partnership on AI that will provide governance to the recently announced Deepfakes Detection Challenge launched by Facebook, Microsoft, Partnership on AI and leading academic as well as future similar initiatives.
A proposed law encourages the use of opaque algorithms that could threaten content created by human rights defenders, alternative media, and journalists.
We look forward to engaging in the PAI to address critical challenges around key focus areas of our Tech Advocacy work including misinformation and disinformation and privacy.
Our program director talks to NED about deepfakes threats and the role they play in the disinformation landscape.
