Nina Jankowicz - Defending Democracy in an AI World
Nina Jankowicz about public values in the digital world @ SXSW25. 'The best antidote to hate is joy'
The disinformation disintegration
Retreating from technology is not an option – we must double down on our democratic values of transparency, accountability and inclusion, and invest in AI literacy for all citizens
Reclaiming the information space for democracy means putting the individual first and harnessing new technologies for public good rather than private gain.
The West faces an existential threat from co-ordinated harassment and online abuse. How we can protect the voice of the individual, including women and the most marginalised in society.
The geopolitical landscape is being reshaped by disinformation and the new power dynamics of technology. How AI is a force multiplier in the struggle for influence, sovereignty and security.
Nina Jankowicz is an expert whose work focuses on the geopolitical threat that AI and online disinformation poses to democracies around the world. She is the founder of the American Sunlight Project, a bipartisan organisation dedicated to fighting the war on truth, and has advised many governments on this existential threat, believing it to be a critical issue for the US and the West. In 2023, Nina was named as one of Time Magazine’s 100 most influential people in AI.
Nina was appointed to lead the Disinformation Governance Board within the US Department of Homeland Security by President Joe Biden. Her book How to Be a Woman Online: Surviving Abuse and Harassment and How to Fight Back covers deepfake pornography, content moderation, AI and whistleblowing, and documents the sustained campaign of online abuse which led to her resigning her position in 2022.
Nina Jankovicz’s first book How to Lose the Information War: Russia, Fake News, and the Future of Conflict was based on her experience as an advisor to governments at the frontline of the Kremlin-sponsored disinformation war. She has worked with the Ukrainian government on disinformation and strategic communications, and has addressed the EU, Canada and the UK on this existential threat to the western way of life.
Nina believes that the most engaging content online is often the most enraging and that content providers are incentivised to lie in order to go viral. She has penned articles for The Spectator, Wired, The Atlantic, The Washington Post, The New York Times, New Statesman and New Scientist. Her speaking engagements include SXSW, Cambridge University, Chatham House, McGill University, the Oxford Internet Institute, Yale, AI4, the Institute of Global Politics, and Rutgers University, and in 2020 she was invited to address the US Senate.
Nina Jankowicz graduated Summa Cum Laude from Bryn Mawr University before studying for her Masters at Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service. She is a Fulbright-Clinton Scholar and speaks fluent Russian as well as proficient Ukrainian and Polish. Nina teaches a graduate-level course on Disinformation and Influence in the Digital Age at Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs and has been recognised by the American Psychological Association for her professional contributions to media psychology and technology.
