Naffi at MIAM: Telling Truth from Fiction in the Age of Deepfakes

On May 28, 2025, Nadia Naffi will be featured in the Moment de l’IA le midi (MIAM) webinar hosted by the School of Artificial Intelligence in Health (ÉIAS) at CHUM. The session, titled “Caring in the Age of the Fake: When Deepfakes Threaten Lives,” will explore how generative AI is blurring the line between truth and illusion, putting patients at risk. As an Associate Professor in Educational Technology at Université Laval and Chairholder of the National Bank Chair in Teaching Leadership in Innovative Pedagogical Practices in a Digital Context, Naffi will highlight the ethical dangers of deepfakes in healthcare and the essential competencies—outlined in the ÉIAS AI Competency Framework—that patients need to develop to recognize misinformation, protect themselves, and maintain trust in the care system.
