At EUNOMIA we are developing a platform which answers:
📍 Which social media user is the original source of a piece of info?
📍 How this information has spread and has been modified?
📍 How likely is the info to be trustworthy?

It's worrying that Mastodon is susceptible to misinformation, since there is no way either moderators can keep up with so many posts or a decentralized AI system let small players be part of the platform. That's why I really hope @Eunomia 's work, if shown effective, gets integrated into @Mastodon. Users —with the guide of an interface letting us calm down, assess sources, and generally assess knowledge—, through distributed work via flagging or whatever, are the solution.

EUNOMIA responds to the #infodemic challenge by providing recommendations and building tools for social media users to assess information trustworthiness.

I'm in the New York Times today talking about bots and disinformation. And how the Great Bot Scourge is mostly exaggerated and misunderstood.

Be mindful of your emotions when reading a post. Anger makes you susceptible to partisanship and spreading #misinformation. Here's a CGP Grey video on the topic:
