Data and Disinformation in Ukraine with Olga Tokariuk

Episode notes

It's been just over two years since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. How has disinformation played a part in the conflict, and what has been done to help combat it? Today's guest is Olga Tokariuk, a Chatham House Fellow and journalist who specialises in research around disinformation. She has spoken widely about Russia's use of disinformation in the war and what it means for the public's wider trust in the media. We discuss the four ways that technology and AI are being used in Ukraine, how to debunk and tackle disinformation in wartime, and how the public has been galvanised to think critically about the media they're consuming. 00:00 - Intro 01:54 - The four ways technology and AI are used on the battlefield 08:19 - What does disinformation look like in this conflict? 16:44 - The global decline of trust in the media 21:55 - How did the evolution of the DIA app help galvanise the public in Ukraine? 19:18 - Dan's final thoughts LINKS: Olga Tokariuk: Chatham House: Dan Klein: Zühlke: Welcome to Data Today, a podcast from Zühlke.
