The Cure to Misinformation Is More Misinformation
- gladiatr72 4y agoI couldn't make it to the part where either the irony or seriousness of this piece is revealed, but if not written in irony: I never thought I'd live to see the day when my highest-confidence source of information is the (seriously fucking) old people that hang out at the donut shop at 5am.
- brucethemoose2 4y agoThey make a good point about misinformation control being a losing battle, but: > common people are too impressionable to be trusted with their own senses No, no one can be trusted. I consider myself a Stable Diffusion "enthusiast" and was messing with GANs before that, and I know I can't tell if an image is fake or manipulated, even while staring at it blown up. Video has some temporal/encoding tells but will be the same way soon. This is not something one can "vaccine" themself against, I just have to have some faith in semi credible sources. And if you really trust nothing on the internet... that is a dark road. Thats how you get into insular extremist echo chambers.
