IT:U x WAI - AI Cannibalism? The Future of Quality and Trust on the Web.
IT:U Education Campus, Altenberger Straße 66c, Lichtenberg, ATDear Women in AI Community,
Women in AI and the Interdisciplinary Transformation University (IT:U) are pleased to invite you to the event “AI Cannibalism? The Future of Quality and Trust on the Web.”
Artificial intelligence is reshaping the architecture of the internet — bringing new opportunities, but also profound risks.
As high-quality content is increasingly overlaid by AI-generated texts, images, and automated content, major platforms are responding with increased isolation or targeted data trading.
The result is a fragmented web and the risk of so-called “AI cannibalism,” where machines increasingly rely on machine-generated data.
What impact does this development have on quality, trust, and the future of the digital space?
These questions will be discussed by experts (in English) from the newly founded Interdisciplinary Transformation University (IT:U).
