Answering: How has the space evolved for both AI and hallucination detection. How GPTZero has grown and learned from both writers, journalists, and enterprise customers in adopting AI responsibly and keeping our information ecosystems safe.

In an industry set on rapid information flow and shortened attention spans, generative AI offers a powerful tool to enhance the value of journalism, particularly during the high-stakes environment of an election. By leveraging AI to delve into archives, we provide crucial historical context, draw meaningful connections between past and present events, and set a more relational tone for public discourse that people can make sense of. Moreover, the integration of generative AI with human-centric interactions, social listening, location data, sentiment analysis, and other indicators (economy, employment, health…) for each community, creates a multidimensional view of the election context is specific areas that makes it easy for the user to find familiar ground from where to absorb the information. This synthesis of information allows journalists to uncover patterns, anticipate trends, and provide more comprehensive coverage tailored to specific demographics or regions which also allows for richer, deeper and longer interactions. By harnessing these technological capabilities, we can take election journalism beyond the “we and them” horse-race reporting or some outlandish quote, offering citizens in-depth, contextualised information that they can relate and build upon from, so that they can make an informed decision at the ballot box.

Using the case on Zac Brettler's visual investigation as an example. This talk will delve into how data-driven visual storytelling, how we combined new evidence with intuitive visual storytelling to bring back to life Zac’s case and how a multidisciplinary team was key for the end result. By combining new evidence and data and fact checks with intuitive visual storytelling, this project aimed to take the user step by step on how that night unfolded allowing them to engage with the information on a personal level and where in the final result collaboration was key.

I want to highlight the inequality on Wikipedia. The Wiki community has been working hard to solve for this problem: one Wikiproject at a time.
