News, Fake News, and Deep Fakes. How Do We Know What’s True?, Part 1: Fake News, Real Costs: How Disinformation and Deep Fakes Impact Business

Episode Topic: Fake News, Real Costs: How Disinformation and Deep Fakes Impact Business

In the wake of the Capitol riot and Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, many of us are aware of the threat that disinformation can pose to democracy. Less explored but equally troubling is the threat that it can pose to the private sector, a topic which Matthew Ferraro, Counsel at Wilmer Hale LLP, speaks to students, alumni, and other members of the Notre Dame community about in the first lecture of 2021’s Ten Years Hence series.

Featured Speakers: 

• James S. O’Rourke, Teaching Professor of Management, University of Notre Dame
• Matthew F. Ferraro, Counsel, Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr, LLP, Washington, D.C.
