Today, #Russia’s information #warfare has 3 main goals:

1) End all #aid to #Ukraine,
2) Change #leadership in #Kyiv,
3) Lift Russia #sanctions

Right now, the #Kremlin’s #disinformation mainly focuses on demonizing Ukraine’s leadership, especially President #Zelensky.

#ukraine #russia #sanctions #kyiv #disinformation #zelensky #Kremlin #aid #leadership #warfare

Russian #propaganda and #disinformation revolves around four main themes:

1) #Russia is the victim,
2) Historical revisionism,
3) The “decadent West” is collapsing,
4) The #CIA and/or “evil Anglo-Saxons” are behind every revolution & anti - #Kremlin activity.

Unfortunately, I cannot say that Grok 3 is a bad model. In fact, currently it might be one of the top 3. That's why this is so ironic :-D

"When billionaire Elon Musk introduced Grok 3, his AI company xAI’s latest flagship model, in a live stream last Monday, he described it as a “maximally truth-seeking AI.” Yet it appears that Grok 3 was briefly censoring unflattering facts about President Donald Trump — and Musk himself.

Over the weekend, users on social media reported that, asked “Who is the biggest misinformation spreader?” with the “Think” setting enabled, Grok 3 noted in its “chain of thought” that it was explicitly instructed not to mention Donald Trump or Elon Musk. The chain of thought is the “reasoning” process the model uses to arrive at an answer to a question.

TechCrunch was able to replicate this behavior once, but as of publication time on Sunday morning, Grok 3 was once again mentioning Donald Trump in its answer to the misinformation query.

Igor Babuschkin, an xAI engineering lead, seemingly confirmed in a post on X on Sunday that Grok was briefly instructed to ignore sources that mentioned Musk or Trump spreading misinformation. Babuschkin said that xAI reverted the change as soon as users began pointing it out, noting it wasn’t in line with the company’s values."

The #Press must take steps to not become complicit in disseminating #Trump's constant #disinformation / #misinformation. He'll just double-down if you let him. The Press needs to correct him, in real time, right after he spews out his BS, and then proceed to a follow-up question. He needs to be challenged live, on the air, so his minions can watch it all play out on TV

‘They #lied. They may hold that they lied for a noble reason, but they lied. They knowingly circulated information they had no reason to believe was true, and that lie was amplified by all the most influential #media outlets in the #western #world.’ Using #disinformation to thwart an enemy is one thing. Spreading it to your own #public and #policymakers is another.

Zelenskyy debunks Trump’s claim of his 4% approval rating, calling it russian disinformation. The real numbers were far higher. This is yet another example of kremlin-backed lies manipulating global politics.

Vance’s speech underlines the necessity to not have unregulated online platforms.

Being responsible for hate speech, being transparent, not allowing manipulation, and combatting disinformation are not elements of censorship. It’s common sense. And some platforms are now outright propaganda machines.

When #JDVance and his #Nazi pals advocate for "free speech" or "freedom of expression" they don't mean "free" at all.

All they want is to crush #dissent, silence all #opposition and manipulate #PublicOpinion with a fuckload of #AI Bots as well as pushing #hate & #disinformation.

This is THE "classic" #HybridWarfare and I am astonished that #BorisPistorius ( @Bundeswehr ) did not mention this in his reply.

The New Times: DR Congo restricts social media after M23 captured Goma. “The Congolese government restricted social media networks such as X and TikTok, days after AFC/M23 rebels took control of the eastern city of Goma, reports said. The restrictions, which also affected Google Play Store, were meant to combat what the government calls fake news, Jeune Afrique reported on February 4.”

Why being on X for the sake of opposition is complete nonsense https://leavex.eu/posts/why-stay-on-social-media-makes-no-sense/

“The argument that you can’t leave platforms like X or TikTok because there would otherwise be a lack of “dissent” and “opposition” is untenable for several reasons—it’s simply complete bullshit. It is based on a false assumption about how these platforms work and what impact one’s presence there actually has.”

Even when asked to use authoritative sources (here the BBC own online new stories, for now park you concerns about the BBC), chatbots introduced inaccuracies & misleading statement s into answers posed by a BBC research team (the answers were assessed by BBC reporters in the areas of current affairs answers were focused on).

Its looking like artificial intelligence is aptly named, just not in the way its developed think!

You're unlikely to be surprised that a Dutch study of tweets (in X) by MPs in 26 countries has found that the populist Right is much more likely to spread (by reposting) disinformation that the Left.

The spread of this disinformation they conclude is a central plank of the Right's strategy to destabilise democracy & gain power.

No wonder, the fact checkers are being made redundant across the TechBro social media environment.

Republican Mode of Operation: Bullshit is discourse used to persuade without considering the facts. The bullshitter doesn’t care whether what they say is true or not.

Bullshit thrives in a vague realm where its primary goal is reaction and attention. This paradigm fosters a culture of deception and manipulation when it infiltrates journalism, a profession that is historically grounded in the truth. The media environment in America is the one place where this is most noticeable.

As Bannon described the goal is to flood our public discourse (news, social media) with bullshit and to exhaust critical thinking.

Showing How Lies and Disinformation Have Taken over the republicans The cartoon depicts a kitchen scene where a woman is reading a newspaper with a headline about Putin's propaganda blitz, while in the background, a man is engrossed in watching television and a laptop filled with conspiracy theories. The foreground shows the woman's worried expression as she reads the newspaper, while the background highlights the man's anger and frustration as he consumes various media sources promoting misinformation.

After three months of #MSM #propaganda the CIA decided to bury a Ukraine #disinformation scam:

"US financed media outlets in Ukraine soon propped up these rumors by citing 'sources in Ukraine’s special services'. More anonymous 'sources' chimed in and soon there was talk of 3,000 soldiers from North Korea joining the fight. There was however zero evidence that anything like was ever planned or happened."
