Truth, Reality and AI

Next date: Monday, 21 September 2026 | 06:00 PM to 07:00 PM

Truth reallity and AI talk

Join us for an illuminating discussion presented by sociologist Cory Alpert and facilitated by Jac Underwood.

In an era dominated by conversations about misinformation and disinformation, the central question remains: What is truth? 

This is a conversation about the nature of truth, the information we receive, and how 21st-century technologies are reshaping our understanding of both. 

Is there something you would really like help understanding? Or something you would like Cory’s opinion on? Questions can be sent through before the event. Submit question here
