(dramatic music)

00:12.190 --> 00:16.357
^- I think about half a year ago there was a story about the

00:16.712 --> 00:20.879
^US sending 3,600 tanks to Eastern Europe, which was a

00:21.773 --> 00:25.940
^fake story, and actually was run, as we believe, on purpose

00:26.456 --> 00:30.623
^to look like a real story and was amplified by robotic

00:30.643 --> 00:34.810
^networks, by the network of fake news sites, etc. etc.

00:40.767 --> 00:43.616
^- [Janis] When you look at the fake news, it not only

00:43.616 --> 00:47.124
^touches every person, it also touches a society

00:47.124 --> 00:50.689
^and the security of the countries so it is not only

00:50.689 --> 00:53.927
^about a nuisance that you try to get rid of,

00:53.927 --> 00:57.520
^it can get at the very core element of who we are

00:57.520 --> 01:00.724
^and what we are, and therefore we need to find a way

01:00.724 --> 01:03.557
^how we protect from these impacts.

01:07.453 --> 01:11.120
^- I'm born in USSR. We always had fake news.

01:11.325 --> 01:14.066
^In my childhood, we had just fake news

01:14.066 --> 01:16.972
^because everything was according to ideology.

01:16.972 --> 01:19.626
^When we learn about other countries, for example

01:19.626 --> 01:23.147
^USA, we learn how bad people are living in USA,

01:23.147 --> 01:25.781
^and not only USA, that I heard about also other

01:25.781 --> 01:28.707
^Western countries, and when I first time traveled to

01:28.707 --> 01:31.435
^Western countries, I was quite surprised and impressed

01:31.435 --> 01:34.102
^that it's not what I was taught.

01:47.357 --> 01:50.291
^- There have been some projects which try to gamify

01:50.291 --> 01:52.973
^fake news, or at least the creation of fake news

01:52.973 --> 01:55.791
^and this was an app which would work like Tinder

01:55.791 --> 01:59.097
^and it would give an opportunity for people to

01:59.097 --> 02:01.675
^compete against each other, against friends

02:01.675 --> 02:05.425
^to see which news are fake and which are not.
