We’ve Lost Control of What’s Real vs Fake Online

Renée DiResta is a leading researcher on social media, disinformation, and how digital platforms shape public opinion. She is the author of Invisible Rulers: The People Who Turn Lies into Reality. In this conversation, we explore why it feels like we are living in completely different realities online, and how platform design, algorithms, and engagement incentives quietly pull us into polarized worlds. We unpack how rumors, memes, and influencer dynamics can turn fringe ideas into mainstream political narratives, shaping elections, public policy, and how we see one another. From the rise of rage-driven influencers to the collapse of shared facts, Renée breaks down how our attention and emotions are weaponized at scale.
