Fake News. A design driven approach

The phenomenon of Fake News affects both individual choices and political opinions and orientations. But pervasiveness of digital technologies and dissemination of fake news are two sides of the same coin; therefore, to stem Fake News we need advanced and interdisciplinary technologies and strategies. Starting from the culture of design, where visual communication and visual information support an ethical approach shared with journalistic communication. Finally, the Fake News project highlighted the innovative potential of Artificial Intelligence, which through metrics and algorithms, but also with the unavoidable contribution of people, for the different design skills involved, can support truthful participatory information.
