2021: Shining a Light in the Post-Truth Era

2021 Online seminar series

April – June 2021

Shining a light in the post-truth era

To understand the digital revolution we need to escape from the current discourse about it, which is mostly “the sociology of the last five minutes” (to use Michael Mann’s famous phrase). This talk is about taking the long view of our current predicament. (recording)
Professor John Naughton
We live in an age of disinformation, where falsehoods and propaganda perpetuate further and faster than ever before. Critical thinking is perhaps our only shield against the dangers this poses to us, but it is not a widely understood concept. In this talk, we’ll explore how we go so badly wrong – and how we can protect ourselves from the ravages of a post-truth world. (recording)
Dr. David Robert Grimes
Beyond changing what we believe to be true, misinformation can distort our memories of the past. In this talk I will discuss research on the effect of misinformation on memories and beliefs, including studies that have demonstrated how fake news can lead to entirely false memories for events that never occurred. The talk will conclude with some evidence-based solutions to reduce susceptibility to misinformation. (recording)
Dr. Gillian Murphy
Figures, statistics, and increasingly “THE data” are often trotted out to support all manner of nonsensical falsehoods. And not just by deceptive crooks and grifters – even scientists and other experts frequently misuse statistics to make their points. In this talk, I’ll discuss my favorite ways that people fool themselves, and others, with data and statistics. (recording)
Dr. Darren Dahly
Ireland had always had very low levels of misinformation and false news, right up until Covid happened – and then suddenly it all changed overnight. In this talk I’ll trace how misinformation has exploded in Ireland during the pandemic, the types of false stories that are being shared, what factcheckers are doing to try to stop it, and ask if Ireland can go back to the way things were before or if misinformation is now something that we all have to live with. (recording)
Christine Bohan
In this seminar, Lord Puttnam will discuss his time as chair of the House of Lords Select Committee on Democracy and Digital Technologies and the committee’s eventual report, ‘Digital Technology and the Resurrection of Trust’, published in June 2020. Digital media literacy was a key focus of this report, especially the ways in which a country’s education system could empower people to think critically about the information they consume online. Lord Puttnam will consider the role government has to play in equipping citizens with the skills they need to thrive in the digital world, but will also look at what private companies and social media companies could and should be doing to ensure they are fulfilling a duty of care to those that use their services. (recording)
Lord David Puttnam
Cultural heritage practitioners are simultaneously drawn to and horrified by the potential of AI, machine learning, and data science. With well documented private sector harms in hand and an aspiration toward justice in our work we are positioned to do good by our communities. In what follows I will introduce the concept of “responsible operations” and articulate actions that libraries may take to make positive use of AI, machine learning, and data science in libraries. (recording)
