AI Evidence Lab: Verify, Protect, Decide

Practice a Quick Evidence Check for AI Answers and Images

Examine AI-generated claims, images, and chatbot responses. Practice checking sources, protecting private information, and deciding what to verify. No account, device, or registration is required.

Use a simple evidence check before relying on an AI answer, image, or search summary.

During the lab, you can:

• compare a chatbot answer with reliable sources.
• examine a generated image for clues and missing context.
• identify private information in a fictional prompt.
• decide what to check before using or sharing an AI response.

Examples will be fictional or reviewed by library staff. Work independently or with other teens. You may write, point, discuss, or observe, and sharing is optional. You will not be asked to describe your own AI use.

No account, personal device, or AI experience is required.

This program is part of the Maryland STEM Festival and MCPL's Science in the Stacks initiative.
