A quarter century after 9/11, people find, communicate, and consume information in new and powerful ways, some of which can amplify extremism and misinformation. Former FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate, Director of Research at the Polarization & Extremism Research & Innovation Lab Michael Jensen, and Deputy Commissioner of the NYPD Intelligence & Counterterrorism Bureau Rebecca Weiner join 9/11 Memorial & Museum President & CEO Beth Hillman to examine this digital transformation and the powerful role of social media and AI. They will explore how these evolving technologies have reshaped the threat landscape and discuss how leaders across the public and private sectors are keeping pace.
