CAS: Counterathon - Collaborative Al Tackles Hate

Opening hours / Beginning:

26 July 2021 - 27 July 2021

Counterathon is the flagship event of the project “AI4Dignity”, which is funded by the European Research Council. In the course of the two­-day closed workshop, fact-checkers from selected countries around the world will enter into an assisted dialogue with AI developers and academic experts to improve machine-learning models for online extreme speech moderation. The project takes up the challenge of operationalizing an open, nuanced, and decentralized ecosystem to combat hate.

A Workshop led by Prof. Dr. Sahana Udupa (CAS Young Center/LMU).
