    I think it’s fair to say we’re now well into the age of AI-generated misinformation. Hopefully people aren’t casting their vote based on internet photos.

        You’re half correct.

        If it’s positive, it’s true.

        If it’s negative, it’s fake news.

      “Well into” as in no denying it. We are just seeing the start of its impact, though. I predict it’s gonna be a rough decade on that front.

      Ya misinformation sucks, but half of the people are below average intelligence. We need further laws to prevent the spread. The lawsuit against Fox was a good start

      Look at the eyes and fingers - if something strikes you as wrong, take a working of wrought iron and shove it through your screen with haste

      I feel sorry for the kids. Having to grow up into this. I’m so sorry. Most of us at least had a childhood that was still rooted in actual reality, not this fucked up hyperreality. They were born into it.

      We’re nearing the point where the fbi can show up at your door and arrest you for robbing fort Knox, and they’ll have videos and photos and AI generated witness testimonies.
