What happens when we can no longer trust what we see or what we hear? Advanced video & audio technologies once reserved for Hollywood blockbusters are taking fake news to a whole new level. Aviv Ovadya, Chief Technologist at the Center for Social Media Responsibility, has solutions.
By mitigating the indirect harms of social media and related technologies, he works to ensure that our online information ecosystem has a positive impact on society. He co-instigated Credibility Coalition standards work, consults for a prominent fact-checking organization, and was a Knight News Innovation Fellow. His work in software engineering, product design, and research spans Amazon, Morgan Stanley, Quora, and Google. Aviv is the proud co-author of the broccoli emoji.
