Designing online platforms for positive societal outcomes: How can we design the information ecosystem to maximize societal benefits while minimizing harm? Tiziano’s research tackles this challenge by rethinking online platforms to prioritize positive societal impact. Specifically, he focuses on the effects of AI-based social media curation on societal issues like political polarization and on enhancing access to open knowledge platforms like Wikipedia to ensure reliable, free information.
