For France’s Press and Media in Schools Week 2023, France 24’s Observers team, specialised in debunking misinformation, has produced a new annual edition of “Truth or Fake”, a short programme giving tips on how to disentangle fact from fiction.
The 2023 edition of “Truth or Fake” focuses on how to verify photos and videos in the age of artificial intelligence, video games and TikTok. It consists of four episodes presented by Derek Thomson, editor of the France 24 Observers, and Catalina Marchant de Abreu, presenter of the daily edition of “Truth or Fake.”
The programme, produced in French, English and Arabic, is designed for use in middle schools and high schools in partnership with France’s media literacy agency CLEMI (Centre pour l’Education aux Médias et à l’Information). It is aimed primarily at students, but contains tips and techniques that are useful to social media users of all ages.
#1 – How to detect an AI-generated photo
#2 – How to detect “deepfakes“
#3 – How to tell the difference between video game footage and reality
#4 – How to verify a video on TikTok
