Technology@lemmy.zip•CNN: Republicans release AI deepfake of James Talarico as phony videos proliferate in midterm racesEnglish
61·2 days agoAmount of upvotes is a direct indication of people who fell for it, same with original Reddit thread - there’s plenty to chose from. I’ve also seen actual journalists from liberal media that shared this as well.

Here’s an example of a deepfake research/investigation that’s being circulated on Fediverse, Reddit etc: https://lemmy.zip/post/60720377

102·3 days agoLLM output isn’t „correct unless proven wrong”, nothing ever is. LLMs aren’t a reliable technology for research and and all it has done so far is that it has lowered the bar on presenting plausible sounding text.
I’m not after plausible sounding text, I’m after truth, facts and human insights.

I think it’s pretty well established that people upvote primarily what they like and agree with. I would prefer it to be different but most people like it that way.
