International Symposium “Media Literacy in the Age of AI: Redefining the Possible”
The Institute of Communication Studies (ICS) and IREX have the honor of inviting you to attend the third annual international symposium, “Media Literacy in the Age of AI: Redefining the Possible,” organized within the USAID Media Literacy project “YouThink.” The event will be held on February 29 (Thursday), 2024 starting at 09:30 am (CEST) in Hotel Limak, Skopje.
The symposium is centered on the crucial convergence of media and information literacy with the fast-evolving domain of Artificial Intelligence (AI). It aims to examine how improved media literacy, particularly within the framework of AI technologies, can enable the youth to not only develop trust and critical assessment skills towards media content but also to effectively employ AI-powered media tools for driving positive changes in society.
The symposium is set to host a series of talks and discussions, focusing on establishing a solid understanding of AI, its current state-of-the-art developments, its implications in the media landscape, and the critical need for educational systems to adapt and stay abreast with the rapid pace of AI advancements.
