Russia has done this by flooding the internet with content to act as AI training material. Drown out enough of the truth with your lies, and AI will never know the difference. Will other authoritarian regimes learn lessons, and decide to follow their lead?
If you can ban or capture enough internet infrastructure so you can suppress what you don't like, then you can use AI to help flood what you don't control with what you want people to think.
A sprawling Russian disinformation network is manipulating Western AI chatbots to spew pro-Kremlin propaganda. Will other authoritarian regimes follow their lead?

False. Western AI systems are built by people most likely colluding with Russia. They are being instructed to produce these outputs.
Sam Altman and the rest of the silicon valley elite are planning a coup:

I am astonished how easy it is for Russian trolls and propaganda to invade the West. I mean cannot the West employ more of its own trolls as it is reacher?
What are some of these arguments they are making? I don’t think I’ve come across a pro Russian argument in a while
I 100% promise you the opposite is also true. The US NEEDS this war to continue for multiple reasons.
we welcomed Russia into the internet. Corporations hire from there, we play videos from them, we play games WITH them. For all the opposition our previous presidents (not the current guy) have done, everyone else in this country acts that Russia is just a spicy European country. Russia’s disinformation is the result of backwards respect and admiration stemmed from the conservatives and corporations. It got to this point because of both money and votes. Oh and them being white doesn’t hurt. This is why a place like Venezuela or India won’t ever be able to match it. They’re too different from us.
They’re all getting their own versions of the Hollywood propaganda machine.
If they pay Mango Mussolini enough, he’ll be happy to let them in.
Garbage in. Garbage out.
When your algorithm equates “popularity” with “correct”, you’ve just built an easily-poisoned LLM.
To paraphrase you:
“We should censor the internet harder, and if we implicate a foreign adversary, we’ll have the pretense to do it.”
GEC is gone. Weep.
Lmfao
If Russian propaganda is a thing there’s no way it’s even a 1% compared with American propaganda
If you are listening to chat bots for any reason, you are beyond help.
The problem is that the “lies” are no more than your average right wing talking points. Try to delete it and the right will complain that they’re being censored. The truth doesn’t matter to these people, and there’s no amount of evidence you can produce that will make them change their mind about climate change, transgender issues and other propaganda/ right wing talking points
