Republicans: ‚Fake news!‘
They didn’t actually save him, did they? Haha
there’s a reason why conservatives fall for AI slop. it’s because it’s the only thing that reinforces their broken view of the world. reality is inherently anti-conservative so they need their hallucinating hugbox to make them feel good
This was the plan all along for why the Trump Regime pushed for no legislation on AI for the next 10 years.
“Republicans fooled…” You don’t say.
A lifetime of going to church prepares you to accept things that aren’t real on faith alone.
and somehow the press ignores much much *much worse* fake news and AI usage situation from the pro-Iran side. every fake news post from them raked at least 40k likes each on X and its still a big problem afaik.
Why didn’t they just use AI video to fake the war in the first place?
From what I can see, it’s easy for them to believe everything they see on the internet.
Better rush out that AI slop
Where’s the image?
Whoever created AI slop should be jailed. It’s intentionally misleading
This era is too difficult for anyone over 50 to understand. The olds gotta get out of politics
Assassination attempt against Trump. Fake
Charlie Kirk assassination.Fake
Epstein hung himself. Fake
Pilot shot down over Iran. Fake
The group who pushed in the party that defunded education is easily tricked?
Shocking!
this is what happens when people don’t think critically about sources. We’re drowning in synthetic media but most folks still share first, verify never. The real issue isn’t AI being good at faking stuff, it’s that we’ve stopped building media literacy.
Blame the algorithm incentivizing speed over accuracy more than the tech itself.
Meanwhile in the USA, young liberals are using AI models as girlfriends. What’s your point?
Reddit is increasingly full of people getting fooled by AI pictures and comments, so I don’t think this is just a problem for republicans like everyone here is suggesting.
