    I can blame both at the same time and also be aware that it’s a lot harder and a lot more effort and thus a much bigger hurdle to shop even one convincing piece of misinformation than to simply prompt an AI for a gazillion of them.

      The tool isn’t the problem though, the use of it can be. In this instance it’s agitating against Trump and Netanyahu, it isn’t a problem.

        In this current reality (where abolishing IP is a utopian dream btw), it is (the existence of) the tool that’s the problem. The entire system would have to change first and that’s not happening any time soon, especially with this misinformation machine.

          The tool is not the problem, this meme is proof of that. The problem is capitalism. AI is one of many means by which misinformation is pushed, and we shouldn’t distance ourselves from them purely because they can be used for nefarious means.

        • Laws require you to believe in them to have power. It isn’t a utopian dream to abolish IP, it is only kept in place by weak legal structures and violence that will collapse. I don’t believe in IP and don’t pay attention to it and download/copy everything I feel like and the more people follow that lead the sooner the regime of IP will collapse
