Deepfakes and AI Misinformation Reshape How War Is Seen Online – The USA Potato

#Trump is now bragging about having met is goals in the #Iran war "weeks ahead of schedule"... three weeks into the war that was supposed to go on for " four to five weeks".

As usual, every word that's coming from #Trump's mouth is a lie.

What those goals are is probably a mystery to everyone in the #WhiteHouse, too.

Apart from that now #Trump threatens to attack civilian infrastructure (power stations to be precise) to force the iranian government to re-open the #straightofhormuz .

Apart from being a blunt violation of #internationallaw, I don't get the strategy behind it. (My best guess is that Trump is just copying #Putin in his war with #Ukraine - giving #Putin a good opportunity to deflect criticism.) People in #Iran are much less dependent on #energy than people in #Ukraine, since the winters aren't as cold, especially now that #winter is over and #spring is coming. I get that #Putin just wants to demoralise the Ukrainian population, to break their will to fight back and ultimately weaken their resistance. But in #Iran, much of the population is already *against* their government. They don't have the will to fight *for* their government and defend their country. (Of course, there are those that do - but still the situation is very different from Ukraine.)

Ahh, the Trump Administration's National Policy on AI... I'll be reading about this, and I expect writing as well... but Monday will be good enough.

sidenote: The Whitehouse is in Wordpress now? I guess it changed from Drupal after the Obama administration... huh.

Weird that I noticed that.
