Reply to comment by nowayjose081 in Meet China's latest AI news anchor, a young woman who runs virtual Q&A sessions to teach people propaganda by ethereal3xp

you do realize that the fact that we are on a site that began with bot users to make it seem lived in to draw in a crowd means we're next, right? Not trying to be mean, just trying to point that out.

Were next for what? Getting ai propaganda? Nah weve already got human-made propaganda brainwashing the idiots. AI propaganda is just easier to spot. The situation couldnt possibly get worse, on the contrary, Most countries are getting better at combatting propaganda. China has to literally run its own firewall to keep us from educating its people. Russia imprisons and kills the good guys.

On reddit, our community-run subs are great and also bad at combatting it. As long as a subreddit doesnt get run by fascist psychos, its good at combatting propaganda.

The people that do still believe propaganda in the democratic countries/subs, are just SOOOOO stupid that they fall for literally anything. Combatting that would be like trying to educate a snail; it just wont happen, ever, no matter what.

Also this chinese news thing from this article doesnt have any actual AI in it. Its pre-recorded propaganda videos that they are SAYING is AI so that the morons will believe its full of knowledge.

That is true, i guess its just me worrying about how more work and thinking is going to have to go into discerning truth. Honestly, I really hope ai helps stop scammers, or that we can jump ahead of them.
