The International Conference on New Media and Social Media: New Media Literacy in the AI Age invites scholars, practitioners and enthusiasts from around the globe to explore the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on personal media life (e.g., news and entertainment consumption, access to health and science information, cultural productions, mediated interpersonal communication). As such, the fast-changing nature of the media landscape has posited new challenges and requirements for the public to update their new media literacy and navigate a healthy and sustainable digital life. According to Livingstone (2004), media literacy can be conceptualised as “the ability to access, analyse, evaluate and create messages across a variety of contexts”. This definition suggests four key components of an individual’s literacy skills. Moreover, media contexts are constantly changing from newspapers, radio and TV to today’s social media, smartphones and AI.
