The paper "Toward Mitigating Misinformation and Social Media Manipulation in LLM Era" by Yizhou Zhang, Karishma Sharma, Lun Du, and Yan Liu addresses the growing threat of misinformation and social media manipulation, particularly in the context of Large Language Models (LLMs). The authors highlight how LLMs have enabled more sophisticated and convincing deceptive content, making it harder to detect and mitigate these threats. The tutorial covers three main areas: (1) detection of social manipulators, (2) learning causal models of misinformation and social manipulation, and (3) LLM-generated misinformation detection. It also discusses future directions, such as reinforcement learning-based clarification recommendations and personalized clarification drafting. The tutorial is designed for researchers interested in social media analysis, providing an overview of advanced machine learning tools and techniques to combat misinformation and social media manipulation. The authors emphasize the importance of these tools in maintaining the credibility of online resources and information.The paper "Toward Mitigating Misinformation and Social Media Manipulation in LLM Era" by Yizhou Zhang, Karishma Sharma, Lun Du, and Yan Liu addresses the growing threat of misinformation and social media manipulation, particularly in the context of Large Language Models (LLMs).
