This is deeply disturbing: Retired General and former National Security Advisor Mike Flynn just shared a long-debunked, AI-generated fake video about a crying forced conscript in Ukraine. Flynn attended RT's 10th anniversary dinner in 2015, sitting close to Vladimir Putin. 🧵
That didn't take long. Nine days ago I posted about how we might start seeing Jason Arday's name (like George Floyd's name) appearing in the titles and abstracts of articles indexed in PubMed. Well, here is the first one. From it, you can see that academia has learned mostly nothing. Page 1 of 2:
