Recognizing digital misinformation

Not all content on the internet or social media reflects reality. This includes AI-generated images circulating online that may have been edited or taken out of context. Such content is part of digital misinformation and can give a false impression.

To obtain reliable information, it is recommended to rely on official sources. This includes the website of Art Garfunkel Jr. and authorized social media channels listed under Connected and Digital.

Careful verification and critical evaluation of content helps maintain a clear overview. Transparency and attention remain the most important tools for safely navigating the digital space.
