Information technology is needed to put a stop to these undesirable developments. With intelligent algorithms and refined data analysis, fakes must be detected more quickly in the future and their spread prevented. However, in order to meaningfully recognize and filter fakes by means of artificial intelligence, it must be possible to distinguish fakes from facts, facts from fictions, and fictions from fakes. This book therefore also asks questions about the distinctions of fake, factual and fictional. The underlying theories of truth are discussed, and practical-technical ways of differentiating truth from falsity are outlined. By taking into account the fictional as well as the assumption that information-technical advancements can benefit from humanities knowledge, the authors hope that content-related, technical and methodological challenges of the present and future can be met. 606 $aFake news 606 $aInformation society$xSocial aspects 606 $aTruthfulness and falsehood 615 0$aFake news. 615 0$aInformation society$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aTruthfulness and falsehood. 676 $a070.43 702 $aKlimczak$b Peter$f1982- 702 $aZoglauer$b Thomas 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996546826803316 996 $aTruth and fake in the post-factual digital age$93552197 997 $aUNISA
