Yesterday, more than 20 researchers published a preprint (https://lnkd.in/dB4jNXJC) that points to the opportunities of #personhood credentials in combating the increasing threat of AI-generated misinformation. In this article, I embed this paper in some previous work and the ongoing development of the EU digital identity wallets (#EUDIW) and point to some critical remaining issues that require the attention of researchers and practitioners. Please feel free to share your perspectives in the comments below; battling disinformation spread by bots without compromising privacy may well be one of the most important societal challenges in the years to come.
