Google’s research focuses on real harm that generative AI is currently causing and could get worse in the future. Namely, that generative AI makes it very easy for anyone to flood the internet with generated text, audio, images, and videos.

I think Google doesn't care because it helps then and other corporations (and extremely wealthy individuals) gaslight us quicker and easier. We're being groomed.

I honestly think the military has a major hand in this. We don't need massive armies when you can control how people think and act.

2016 US presidential election should be studied. It showed that a "Super Power" could be manipulated into voting for a enemy asset.

In the 80's the USSR/Russia was always the enemy. We had a president in the white house say he trusted them more then his own intelligence department. Disinformation and good ol racism works when done correctly.

Isn't every president an enemy of the people though?

Of course they are actively involved. But every time I suggest that we are heavily propagandized, my compatriots accuse me of being a bot or Russian troll.
