WIliiams tells Matt Richter of the NYT that he is concerned about the way the flood of information has left people wondering what information to trust. Bill Keller pointed to this behaviour during the use of chemical weapons in Syria, as profoundly disturbing. The scope for misinformation to thrive in this environment creates a sense of people not knowing what information to trust.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
