"In the midst of the 4.0 industrial revolution and changing media landscapes, the ability to adapt becomes the key to determining our future," said Ratu Annisaa Suryasumirat, a journalist from Liputan6.com, while presenting a session on Media Production in the Social Media Era.

She emphasized that the way people consume information has changed, so the younger generation needs to be more proactive and adaptive to evolving technologies and media trends.

Meanwhile, Adyaksa Vidi Wirawan, Fact Checker from Liputan6.com presented a material titled Prepare for the Rise of Disinformation by Relying on Fact-Checking. He highlighted the importance of digital awareness amidst the rampant flow of information circulating on social media.

"When receiving information from social media, we must apply the principles of being smart and careful. Smart in understanding the content of the information and careful when sharing it. We must not fall into hoaxes that could harm ourselves and others," he emphasized.

Vidi also reminded students not to be easily provoked by emotions when reading news and to get into the habit of verifying information to avoid spreading false information. Thus, this event not only serves as a discussion platform but also as a first step towards creating a wiser generation in facing information challenges in the digital era.
