This online course covers the state of misinformation, the rise of artificial intelligence, and the role both play in shaping the media landscape. Students will learn the multifaceted ways in which AI technologies are impacting the dissemination, consumption, and detection of misinformation within various media platforms. Using examples taken from today’s news and social media platforms, and through hands-on AI creation, students will learn strategies to enhance media literacy, gain a baseline understanding of generative AI, and explore potential ethical implications tied to the implementation of AI-powered solutions. Your instructor is David Humphreys, Director of AI Integration at Southern New Hampshire University.

“18,000 miles. 108 days. A powerful story. In 2024, Lael Wilcox set a new world record for the fastest woman to circumnavigate the world by bicycle. For 108 days, 12 hours and 12 minutes she rode, joined by friends and fans.  This new documentary captures the heart, grit, and community that fueled every mile.”
