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.

#TikTok Shop Showed Me Search Suggestions for Products With #Nazi #Symbolism

Even after TikTok removed #swastika #jewelry from its online shop, I was #algorithmically nudged toward a web of Nazi-related products during searches, like “double lightning bolt” and “ss” necklaces.

A neat way to stumble upon #interesting #information randomly, learn new things, and spend spare moments of #boredom without reaching for an #algorithmically #addictive #antisocialmedia app
