IMMUNE 2 INFODEMIC Webinar Series
AI-Enabled Disinformation
Date & Time
29 April 2026 | 15:00–16:00 CET | Online
Artificial intelligence is no longer just a tool for innovation — it has become a powerful weapon for spreading disinformation. From AI-generated deepfakes to automated bot networks and synthetic media, the landscape of manipulation is evolving faster than ever. This webinar unpacks how AI is being weaponised to undermine trust, distort reality, and influence public opinion at scale.
Join us for the first session of the IMMUNE 2 INFODEMIC 2 Webinar Series, where we explore one of the most urgent disinformation challenges of our time: the use of artificial intelligence to create, amplify, and spread false information.
In this one-hour online session, our experts will walk you through the mechanics of AI-enabled disinformation — from deepfake videos and voice cloning to large language model-generated propaganda and coordinated inauthentic behaviour.
You will gain a clearer picture of how these technologies work, who deploys them, and why they are so effective at bypassing our critical defences.
The session will also introduce you to practical tools and strategies to detect and resist AI-driven manipulation, including a hands-on preview of the free e-learning modules developed by the IMMUNE 2 INFODEMIC 2 project.
What You Will Learn
- How AI technologies are exploited to produce and spread disinformation
- The role of deepfakes, synthetic media, and automated accounts in influence operations
- Practical strategies to identify and respond to AI-generated content
- How to use the IMMUNE 2 INFODEMIC 2 e-learning resources to build your resilience
