Hi there, I'm Alexander Loth! 👋

Applied AI researcher and author combating misinformation through technology.

I build tools that strengthen information integrity - from cryptographic image verification to AI-driven fake news detection. My work sits at the intersection of Generative AI, Agentic AI, Human-Computer Interaction, and ethical systems, informed by a data science background from CERN.
