Headline "CRY MORE: NBC Whines Biden ‘Has No Firm Plan’ to Fight ‘Domestic Disinformation’ Before Election"
My response while unconfirmed was article and author are both AI generated.
Here's my attempt at the same article using AI. “give me a article from the perspective of a groupthink mindguard on how not enough is being done to fight domestic disinformation and assign it to a fictional male hispanic author”
Title: "The Silent Epidemic: How Inaction on Domestic Disinformation Threatens Our Democracy"
By: Carlos Moreno, Senior Fellow, Center for Critical Thinking
As a nation, we pride ourselves on being a beacon of freedom and democracy. Yet, a silent epidemic threatens to undermine the very fabric of our society: domestic disinformation. It's no longer a matter of if, but when, this insidious threat will manifest in catastrophic consequences. And I'm not alone in sounding the alarm.
As a senior fellow at the Center for Critical Thinking, I've dedicated my career to studying the perils of disinformation and the importance of fact-based discourse. The evidence is clear: domestic disinformation is rampant, and our response has been woefully inadequate.
The statistics are staggering. According to a recent study by the Pew Research Center, nearly 70% of Americans believe that fabricated news stories have become more common over the past few years. This is not surprising, given the ease with which misinformation can spread on social media platforms. A single false claim can be amplified thousands of times in a matter of hours, reaching millions of people.
But it's not just the quantity that's alarming – it's the quality too. Disinformation often targets specific groups, amplifying existing biases and exacerbating societal divisions. The consequences are far-reaching: increased polarization, decreased trust in institutions, and even physical harm to individuals who are misinformed or misled.
So, what's being done to combat this threat? Unfortunately, not nearly enough. Governments and tech companies are still playing catch-up, while policymakers and media outlets seem more concerned with scoring political points than tackling the root causes of disinformation.
We need to acknowledge that domestic disinformation is a national security issue. It's no longer just about fake news; it's about undermining our ability to make informed decisions as citizens. We're talking about a crisis that affects everyone – regardless of political affiliation or demographic background.
Here are some concrete steps that need to be taken:
Increased funding: We need to allocate more resources to combat disinformation. This includes funding for fact-checking initiatives, research into the spread of misinformation, and education programs that promote media literacy.
Regulatory action: Tech companies must be held accountable for allowing disinformation to spread unchecked on their platforms. This includes implementing stricter moderation policies and transparency measures.
Media literacy education: Schools must prioritize media literacy education from an early age. This includes teaching students how to identify credible sources, evaluate information critically, and avoid spreading misinformation. Government transparency: Government agencies must be transparent about their own information dissemination practices and provide clear guidance on how to verify official information.
As a society, we can no longer afford to ignore this crisis. We must come together to address the root causes of disinformation and promote a culture of fact-based discourse.
As I've said before, "Silence is complicity." We can't afford to remain silent any longer.

That’s scary how fast AI has gotten more plausible in just a few months. It used to be filled word count. word count for the sake of word count.
What AI platform did you use?
Yup.
Here’s my attempt at the same article using AI.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
While nothing should be surprising these days, that still seems unbelievable. There are so many things this brings to mind...
- You said the “CRY MORE: NBC Whines Biden.... “ article was generated by AI. For you, what was the first clue that made you suspicious?
- Is there a filter one can put articles through to find out if they are AI generated? I assume there is no such filter but if there, how would one know they can trust that filter?
- I think for many of us, what we are watching with AI shows that like any tool, it can be very frightening... or it can be very useful. For me, I’m looking around our company and wondering “how can we be using AI in a way that puts out a much better product while reducing costs?”
- The last thought that comes to mind is what Jesus said in Matthew 24 when the disciples went to talk to him when he was on the Mount of Olives…..
Matthew 24: And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you…..
The sign of the end of the age can all be summed up in one word….’deception’. If we are don’t think we are living in the ‘age of deception’, I don’t know what would convince anyone.
