The Social Intelligence Lab invites you to their event

Seeing through the manipulated internet

About this event

By next year, 90% of online content is expected to be AI-generated. Coupled with the speed of social amplification, brands face a reality where a single post can distort perception, spark outrage or impact the bottom line before anyone sees it coming.

Join PeakMetrics as they break down what today’s manipulated internet really looks like and why legacy monitoring tools are no longer enough to tackle the challenges brands currently face. With AI-generated posts, coordinated amplification, fake accounts and rapid-fire narrative spread, the question isn’t if your brand will be affected, it’s whether you’ll catch it early enough.

In this demo, you’ll: 

  • Learn how to separate real conversations from engineered noise
  • Understand how false signals can make fringe narratives look mainstream
  • Explore how to detect both threats and opportunities before they peak
  • Hear real-world examples that show how quickly narratives can warp online. For example, the Cracker Barrel logo backlash, where bot activity drove a significant portion of the conversation.
