Deepfakes are already 100x better than one year ago according to @daniellecitron. It will be able to stoke unrest, sway elections and let everybody deny ever having said anything caught on tape (think Access Hollywood tape) #digiNU #mppdigital
Deepfakes and their potential to ruin careers make defensive self-surveillance (like automatic logging and documentation of everything we do) a realistic future for CEOs, politicians and others that need to protect themselves according to @daniellecitron #digiNU #mppdigital
"The dominant social platforms KNOW that they screwed up ... I don't think they can walk away. They are on the case." - @daniellecitron on fighting viral fake content. #digiNU #mppdigital
@daniellecitron "Dictators LOVE Facebook. It serves their interest." - @daniellecitron #diginu
@daniellecitron How do you as a journalist defend yourself when govt officials cirkulate a realistic but fake sextape of you in closed networks? It has already happened 👉 #digiNU #mppdigital #dkmedier
@daniellecitron Automation and AI helps the AP produce more content quicker according to @lisagibbs954. Summaries, video editing, transcription are just some of the tasks they throw AI at. #dkmedier #digiNU
@daniellecitron @lisagibbs954 Problems facing journalists using machine learning according to @jonathanstray:
- Off the shelve ML is not tuned for our needs.
- Not enough training data.
- Humans are often cheaper and easier than training a model.
- Hard to define what "a news story" in the data is.

“Every reporter I know who have worked directly with a developer or datajournalist wants to do it again.” - @CescaAntonelli from @BloombergBNA at #digiNU. Love your developers, people ❤️
When hiring developers for newsrooms we need to change our job interviews b/c “they will often be much more introvert than regular reporters.” - @CescaAntonelli #digiNU #dkmedier
@CescaAntonelli Another issue in machine learning and automation of Journalism. How do you teach it what the story in the data is when it could be 3 different things? @jensfinnas thought about this docs.google.com/presentation/d… @jonathanstray
