I’m convinced AI content generation was created with the sole intent of manufacturing outrage material for gullible idiots.
because the rate at which these technophobic illiterates have adopted AI, and expertly use it to generate bullshit, is too high to be otherwise plausible.
Yeah, no doubt. My mother got radicalised by Facebook over the years. It went from cute dog and cat things to “harmless” conspiracy theories (think bigfoot), culminating in fucking her with QAnon propaganda indoctrination. Last I checked up on her, there’s machine generated rubbish all over her feed. She’s beyond saving at this point. Suppose she was always primed for this kind of thing, being pro-homeopathy anti-vaccine person.
She doesn’t question the machine generated content at all, and I saw that if someone points it out, which a scarce few have done, she just justifies it with “well it could be real, this kind of thing does happen.”
At this point I don’t think it matters if this technofascism was a knowing plan, or an unfortunate series of events that by themselves seemed justifiable to the people making the decisions, but it doesn’t really matter. We’re here now. They’re not only trying, but succeeding in coercing governments and undermining democracy.

real sad that she’d throw away all her family and love, for the expense of crazy online conspiracy theories and obsession.
