The Lie Detectives: In Search of a Playbook for Winning Elections in the Disinformation Age
When and Where
Speakers
Description
The Toronto Data Workshop brings together academia and industry to share data science and AI best practice. We are broadly interested, but especially in the code- and data-centric aspects of a project that are often glossed over. We meet weekly for an hour and most talks are recorded.
Please join the event. Everyone is welcome—it is free and you do not need to be affiliated with the university.
