AI generated reports of explosions

Postby Kurt » Mon May 22, 2023 3:20 pm

Are hitting a lot of news aggregator sites now because of posts from twitter.

The reports are from the $8 per month "Verified" accounts.

No one of substance seems to be falling for it, especially since the images have things like giving The Pentagon white Pillars and the "White House" looking more like a Super 8 Hotel designed to look vaguely like The White House.

Some people are saying it is a "Russian Op" but I think it is looking like a crypto currency based promotion. The crypto bros are now promoting this thing where an NFT is now tied to a certain amount of crypto. Not sure how this works but they seem to be looking for suckers, and if you believe that the Pentagon has white pillars you will probably buy about anything.
