What did rapper Đen Vâu tell fans amid the social media maze of fake news?

Rapper Đen Vâu used KOL Summit 2026 to deliver a simple message to fans navigating the flood of information online: seek out sources that provide accurate information.

Speaking to Thanh Niên, Đen Vâu said the conference presented a large amount of information about artificial intelligence and the distinction between real and fake news. What impressed him most, he said, was the cooperation among authorities, KOLs, KOCs, digital platforms and users in confronting misinformation.

He said this joint effort could help rebuild trust in a digital environment where people must process an increasing amount of information and often struggle to tell what is genuine. The rapper also said public understanding of cybersecurity authorities had changed. Their role, he noted, was not limited to detecting and handling wrongdoing, but increasingly included supporting citizens and content creators through programs on identifying AI-generated material and fake news.

Seek out the sources that provide correct and accurate information, including the Cybersecurity and High-Tech Crime Prevention Department, the government, the state and reputable mainstream media. That is one way we can keep ourselves safe in the digital age.

Đen Vâu’s message was direct: "Seek out the sources that provide correct and accurate information, including the Cybersecurity and High-Tech Crime Prevention Department, the government, the state and reputable mainstream media. That is one way we can keep ourselves safe in the digital age."

Chế Nguyễn Quỳnh Châu warned that even influential people can become victims of AI-generated images if they fail to verify them. She said AI could provide powerful assistance, but that made caution more important when receiving and sharing information. "My responsibility is to put AI in the right place. I will not use AI to create content for me. I must decide all of my own content and take responsibility for it," she said. Model Hà Anh also said the summit had prompted her to reflect on the responsibilities of KOLs.
