Location: 264 Hesburgh Library (Technology Commons) (View on map )

Learn how to identify AI hallucinations and verify online information.

As part of the Hesburgh Libraries AI Literacy workshop series, this installment addresses how to critically evaluate online information and identify inaccuracies in AI-generated content. This hands-on workshop introduces "lateral reading," a powerful fact-checking strategy that involves leaving a source to verify claims across multiple reputable sites. Participants will learn how to quickly assess credibility, spot potential "hallucinations” in AI-produced text, and become more discerning consumers of digital information.

The AI Literacy workshop series is an offering of the AI Collaborative Programming group, a cross-unit partnership between the Hesburgh Libraries, ND Learning, and the Office of Information Technology.
