What should we do about AI slop, deep fakes, and misinformation on social media? What are possible solutions that are both First Amendment-respecting and potentially effective? There’s been little progress toward regulation of social media in the United States, but around the world new ideas and rules are emerging everywhere.

In Governing Babel, John Wihbey considers the ongoing, high-stakes debate over social media platforms and free speech, and how these companies ought to manage their tremendous power.

Join the CTM for a book talk and discussion centered on what Governing Babel’s findings imply for an information ecosystem increasingly marked by AI-generated “slop” and misinformation.
