AI Can Write Disinformation Now—and Dupe Human Readers​

Mike Gruszczynski, a professor at Indiana University who studies online communications, says he would be unsurprised to see AI take a bigger role in disinformation campaigns. He points out that bots have played a key role in spreading false narratives in recent years, and AI can be used to generate fake social media profile photographs. With bots, deepfakes, and other technology, “I really think the sky's the limit unfortunately,” he says.

I guess anyone who wants to be added to the autistic PM he started with me, rate this post. I originally planned to banter about it with him in chat.

it got so fucking morbid after that in the world

screencaps? I have an unhealthy attraction to schizophrenic time travel theory posts and I barely see them anymore, even on /x/
 
It's an interesting theory. What if only 10 percent of KF is actual people, the rest are just bots responding? The idea does sound ridiculous but think about it, you will probably never meet face to face with anyone on this site. You have no evidence to prove we are all bots but no evidence to prove we are not.

Truth be told, there are just a shit ton of people online and it's easier than ever before. You do see people gathering and parroting the same shit like on Twitter which may make it seem like there are bots running amok. Go to any political trending topic on twitter and you'll see morons oddly use the same specific language. Like "the shooter was wearing a garish yellow shirt" "Reports say he was wearing a garish yellow shirt" and so on. It's creepy tbh.
 
Assuming this is all true (and to me, it appears to be at least very likely, and backed by good evidence) I don't know how to cope with every facet of reality being so manipulated, to the point that I cannot even trust what I see before my eyes in the real world as something genuine.
I can't determine whether a person is real online. I can't determine a real person's thoughts or words to be formed genuinely within their mind or completely farmed by outside influence, again by real people or imposters.
The more I observe, the more I begin to believe that will is a force within this universe; that with enough collective will, anything can come into being. And that will can be artificially created. The will of one or a few, at least those with the proper resources, can become the will of many through these means, and thus that will can become realized. It's like some kind of arcane magic, it reminds me of the shit Kirkbride experienced while high out of his mind, writing Elder Scrolls lore.
I feel like a fucking schizo typing this. That too, is probably the result of someone's desires. Force assimilation, destroy those who will not assimilate. I generally feel like I can deal with a lot, but losing a grip on reality like this - insofar as it can even be called real - instills in me probably the deepest desire to kill myself of anything I've ever experienced.
I don't think I'm at that point yet, but the logical evolution of this phenomenon will probably bring me there. This is the type of reality I would expect in hell.
I don't know what I hope to accomplish by saying all of this. I apologize for the blogpost, but I all of this information being introduced to me in addition to many years of a sort of nebulous feeling that things aren't what they seem has just kind of mindfucked me, and I needed to express that somehow.
