Sjterp ds_of_misinfo_feb_2019
Sara-Jayne Terp discusses misinformation and proposes treating it similarly to information security (infosec). She notes misinformation comes in many forms, from individuals spreading fake events to coordinated nation-state campaigns. Defences include platform approaches like removing bots/trolls and individual efforts like reporting, blocking, or counter-campaigns. Terp advocates mapping misinformation to existing infosec frameworks to understand techniques and threats, conduct red team exercises, and continually adapt responses as attacks evolve over time. Building on infosec principles could help defend against and respond to large-scale, adaptive misinformation threats.

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
