Description

Calendar event image

Think you can spot what’s real and what’s AI-made? Put your sleuthing skills to the test in this interactive workshop presented by Joint Family and the Cambridge Public Library. 

Through hands-on activities, we'll see how easy it is to create AI-generated images, voices, and videos and how hard it's becoming to tell the difference. Together we'll explore emerging trends in deepfakes and AI-generated content, real-world case studies of scams and misinformation, and practical strategies for protecting ourselves, our families, and our communities. No prior experience with AI necessary. Open to ages 13 and up. Bring someone you trust - a friend, a grandparent, a neighbor!
