DESCRIPTION:USC Rossier Presents the Grand Challenges and Opportunities Fal
 l 2025 Part 1\n\n \n\nKnowing Otherwise - Systems\, Information\, & Power\
 n\nPart 1 will begin by examining the architectures of knowledge productio
 n and dissemination. Participants will explore systems-thinking as a tool 
 not only to analyze complexity\, but to challenge assumptions about neutra
 lity\, credibility\, and authority.\n\nAs emerging technologies—from alg
 orithmic curation to generative AI—reshape how information is created\, 
 circulated\, and trusted\, we will consider their impact on learning\, pub
 lic discourse\, and justice. Together\, we’ll interrogate the constructi
 on of “facts\,” the politically polarizing nature of truth\, and the c
 ultural dynamics of misinformation and disinformation.\n\n \n\nSpeakers In
