Some more good news this morning – UK children will be taught "how to spot fake news and disinformation, including AI-generated content" in new curriculum. This kind of media literacy education is so badly needed. I've written multiple letters to our MP asking for this over the years. It's good to see something finally happening.
The issue with digital identity is that people don’t have a single, unified identity. Identity, like many things, is a social construct, not part of some natural order. As a dual national, I'm acutely aware that when and how I assert an identity credential, or characteristic, depends on context. Therefore, digital systems that help us assert these identities must be responsive to people’s contextual needs and under their control. Otherwise, we’re just building more surveillance tools.
