Election 2022: Albo forgets the job & interest rate figures.

Cue an unhinged media frenzy from Canberra bubble journos like Fran Kelly:
"Safe to say, a DANGEROUS gaffe!!!"

DUTTON LIES DAILY.

❌ NO: This is not a legit photo of hundreds of bears blocking an entrance road into Yellowstone National Park.
✔️ It's AI-generated & was previously shared about a Missouri highway.
✔️ Engagement bait with animals is a common type of misinformation.

A Facebook post reads, “Bears Form Unprecedented Blockade at Yellowstone Entrance—Scientists Fear They Know Something We Don’t” and features an image showing hundreds of bears on a road. The News Literacy Project has added a label that says “AI-GENERATED.”

Sarah Ferguson: “What is it that #Trump is doing that has become so egregious?"

A question that puts to rest any doubts about the intelligence and competence of the #abc730 host.

Malcolm Turnbull sets the record straight.

Fewer and fewer people are using news sources. This is a problem that adds to disinformation.
Support legit news sources.

False news / true news, a meta-analysis on news judgements: “to improve discernment, there is more room to increase the acceptance of true news than to reduce the acceptance of fact-checked false news” write @Sacha_Altay and Jan Pfänder in Nature.

Columbia Journalism Review: We Compared Eight AI Search Engines. They’re All Bad at Citing News.. “Overall, the chatbots often failed to retrieve the correct articles. Collectively, they provided incorrect answers to more than 60 percent of queries.

"We are in this crisis in no small part because of misinformation and disinformation, and some of it came from Putin's troll farms (aka a cyberwar in which we've apparently just surrendered), and some of it came from the manipulation of information on Twitter and Facebook and Google, and some of it came from right-wing media."

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

A subset of the #disinformation and #misinformation of Peter #Dutton from one 15-minute press conference.

The lazy media throng didn't attempt to fact-check.

Albo makes one gaffe and it leads the news for weeks.

Jane Hume: "The average mortgage holder... has paid an additional $50k a YEAR..."

Angus Taylor: "...an extra $50k in interests costs since we started seeing interest rate increases"

James Glenday has his homework to do.

#LNP #InterestRates #journalism #misinformation #auspol


Pathological LNP liars like Peter Dutton, Jane Hume and Angus Taylor are so unaccustomed to being fact-checked they turn into spluttering stuttering messes when faced with the smallest amount of push-back.

#inflation #InterestRates #misinformation #afternoonbriefing #auspol


Jane Hume:
- AVERAGE #inflation up from 2.2% for the LNP to 4.1% for Labor
- The RBA partially blames spending.

Reality:
- Inflation down from 6.1% to 3.2% under Labor.
- RBA: Spending not a problem.

James Glenday does a good job.

#Trump is now branding the #AP as #misinformation. Why them? Because they're exceptionally unbiased, no frills news. To undermine faith in the #freepress, he needs to undermine those outlets with the strongest claim to impartiality since that gives them the most potential to effectively show him for what he is. That's why he spent so much time branding #CNN but left plainly left-wing outlets like #MSNBC alone.

Misinformation Is A Political Tool Of Radical Right-Wing Populists

New research argues that misinformation is less a product of the social media environment and more a tool for specific political groups. #misinformation #rightWing

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.”

BBC: AI chatbots unable to accurately summarise news, BBC finds. “Four major artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots are inaccurately summarising news stories, according to research carried out by the BBC. The BBC gave OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Microsoft’s Copilot, Google’s Gemini and Perplexity AI content from the BBC website then asked them questions about the news.”

Important research investigating politics and misinformation used 32M tweets from politicians in 26 countries, spanning 6 years and several election periods. Radical-right populism was the STRONGEST determinant of those who spread misinformation.

People who claim Trump and Elon Musk's destruction of the FBI, CIA, CDC, Treasury, etc is bad are forgetting the horrific events of 2024, when President Joe Biden forgot someone's name.
