@bloombergpolitics: #Fake videos of celebrities like #TaylorSwift and #JuliaRoberts attacking #Democratic candidates have started appearing on X. Stephanie Baker explains how #Russian #disinformation operators are deploying an army of #bots ahead of the #US #midterm #elections #AI #artificialintelligence #democrats #politics #globalpolitics
It should be made VERY CLEAR that is Elon wanted to get rid of all the bots he could do so very easily.

When are we going to do the sad thing of demanding Real ID standards for social media accounts! If you want an account, fine. If you want a different name or image, also fine. But no legal ID, no account.

Russia sees Trump and Republicans as an asset to bring down America. Social media companies must do better.

When dems are in power, there needs to be a media push to downplay twitter/ x-use. X is for losers

I don't know if this is still true - I don't get attacked by bots much these days - but I used to sus out bots by replying in GIF form. They couldn't handle it.

AI needs to be regulated. This is ridiculous that all these billionaires are allowed to do this, but I guess it’s OK as long as they give the orange turd money.
