Our decision making heavily depends on the information we consume. Should I get vaccinated or not? Is climate change real or a hoax? Is quinoa as healthy as advertised (seriously, is it)?
With time, our worldview crystallises and it seems nearly impossible to break free from our personal echo chambers that often offer so much comfort.
Jenny Romano, co-founder and CEO of The Newsrooms, elaborates how AI can help to fight misinformation, promote plurality and bring people of polar opinions to a common ground. Jenny is on a mission to build a community of news readers that do not insult each other. That's an ambitious goal!
Topics we discuss:
- How can we assess the trustworthiness of information we consume?
- Can AI and technology in general be neutral?
- Leaving well-paid jobs at Google and LinkedIn amidst the pandemic to found a company.
- A mindset shift to ‘I don't know how to do this, and I am okay with it.’
About Jenny Romano:
Jenny is co-founder and CEO of The Newsroom, a startup on a mission to fight misinformation and promote plurality online. She and her co-founder Pedro Pamplona Henriques spent years discussing journalism and misinformation. In December 2020 - with the pandemic in full sway - they decided that it was time to act.
That's when The Newsroom was born to revolutionise news reading through bite-sized news, historical context and diversity of thought.
Jenny is based in Lisbon.
