I am skeptical of nearly all gen ai applications, including this one. However, if humans can hallucinate weapons of mass destruction in Iraq I guess we are no worse off than we are with the status quo.
Generous way of saying "outright fucking lied about...".

Oh, and this whole thread was in HN's first page just a moment ago and now it dissapeared. lol
The trouble begins when officers just believe an AI and fail to follow up with good faith investigation, this has happened a lot with face-ID tech.
Who knows if that will be the only target when it becomes easy to keep tabs on most citizens, all in the name of safety.
Imagine how good ai will be at pushing this. Any dissent online can now be drowned out with bots. Those who chase social approval online will naturally shift their view the way the bots encourage them to with upvotes/downvotes. If Iraq happened again today we’d struggle to get a word of dissent past the online message boards.
Sobering thought. Well brought up ...
We all just got too used to thinking there was a real person on the other end of social media.
Your traditional racist uncle types and old people worried about nonsense are all-in. It’s bizarre to see right wingers suddenly worried about killing Russians… talk about reversal.
End of the day, social media has been weaponized and the intelligence services need to be there. Eventually, they’ll be heavy regulation, but that day is far away.
