Artificial intelligence has become the most powerful information force of our time. It writes, summarizes, translates, recommends, filters, and even decides what billions of people see online.

 

For the first time in human history, truth is no longer shaped only by journalists, governments, institutions, or eyewitnesses. It is increasingly shaped by algorithms, systems that learn from data we cannot fully see, understand, or control.

 

This raises a critical question for the future: Who will decide what the world believes tomorrow? For decades, people trusted traditional sources of information, as newspapers, radio, television, and later digital media shaped public understanding of events.

Today, misinformation comes from governments, health institutions, pharmaceutical companies, food manufacturers, and even respected media outlets.
