AI for Good Meetup - Climate Change & Misinformation (NLP)
Description changed:
This is a virtual meetup from the AI for Good Community, where we collaborate to use AI and NLP in fighting misinformation and Climate Change denial.
This time our community members will be joined by Jack Hampson from Deeper Insights. We are developing a tool that provides facts vs. fiction about climate change to verify news and social media posts everyone is reading online. There are two fundamental approaches we are trying to experiment with at the moment:
1) Clustering and manual labeling
2) Training a model on a Grist dataset
If you know a thing or two about climate change, Natural Language Processing, web plugins, or simply feel passionate and keen to use your skills for good - please join our meetup and let's act together!
