TRUTH AND FAKE IN THE POST-FACTUAL DIGITAL AGE ...

The increase in fake news  the growing influence on elections  increasing false reports and
targeted disinformation campaigns are not least a consequence of advancing digitalisation.
Information technology is needed to put a stop to these undesirable developments. With
intelligent algorithms and refined data analysis  fakes must be detected more quickly in the
future and their spread prevented. However  in order to meaningfully recognize and filter fakes
by means of artificial intelligence  it must be possible to distinguish fakes from facts  facts
from fictions  and fictions from fakes. This book therefore also asks questions about the
distinctions of fake  factual and fictional. The underlying theories of truth are discussed 
and practical-technical ways of differentiating truth from falsity are outlined. By considering
the fictional as well as the assumption that information-technical further development can
profit from humanities knowledge  the authors hope that content-related  technical and
methodological challenges of the present and future can be overcome.
