I’ve been watching ‘The Matter of Facts’ #ABC series with #HamishMcDonald and found it very interesting. In this age of #AISlop and #AIFakes, disinformation warfare and addiction to social media, it is a potent reminder that we are not helpless. We can stop the #TechBros from #algorithmically anialating our ability to discern fact from falacy.

I particularly liked the take on Taiwan where the #Tech is being used against #GenAISlop and #DisInformation to strengthen democracy.

Enjoyable series to watch, waiting for forthcoming episodes.

#Memes in denen der Boss oder #LadyGaga Shirt und Pullover mit der Aufschrift "Hello Denmark, we hate him too" tragen, sehen cool aus, sind aber offenkundig #AIFakes. Und solche Fotos unten, bei denen ich mir nicht sicher bin. Sind die OK, nur weil deren "Inhalt" mir gefällt?

Some useful information here about spotting AI fake videos and misleading photos.
As usual, didnt link to the FB post. Don't read the comments on FB, that among other stuff claims the Oct 7 attack was a false flag.
