🚨 #IOTA has the potential to become the digital shield against the largest wave of disinformation in history.
In just 24 hours since the release of Google Veo 3, hundreds of hyperrealistic fake news clips have flooded the internet — manipulated speeches, satirical headlines disguised as serious journalism, and deepfakes styled like prime-time broadcasts. And some users —perhaps many— shared them as if they were real.
We’re entering a new era: algorithmic disinformation at industrial scale.
In the face of this onslaught, critical thinking alone is no longer enough — we need structural tools to verify authenticity.
💡 This is where IOTA Identity becomes essential. It’s a decentralized digital identity framework that allows us to assign verifiable credentials to every content creator — individuals, media outlets, institutions, even machines.
With it, we can:
✅ Certify who is behind each piece of content
✅ Trace the real origin of information
✅ Tell the difference between real and synthetic media... instantly, trustlessly
In a world where artificial intelligence can fabricate the perfect lie, only a robust digital identity layer will allow us to trust again in what we see and read.
IOTA isn’t just a protocol — it’s the foundation for a new infrastructure of trust.

(it's supposed to either be about 1. the simulation hypothesis or 2. the impossibility of knowing when the critical moment in the takeoff actually happens, but i like that it works in a lot of other ways too.)
Our children are already growing up in a country where a presidential candidate can spew hate, threaten opposition, and express admiration for Hitler. It’s time to change course, and let Trump be history. Watch our ad “Their Future” on @msnbc with @Lawrence.
@timoldland I'm not sure if the criticism is justified. This device could be a further step towards more complete autonomous driving. For example, a car could drive itself to a charging station and a robot could connect the car ...all completely automated
@ArminWolf Es wird Zeit sich mit Strategien und Technologien zur Lösung dieser Problematik zu beschäftigen. Aus meiner Sicht
Digitale IDs
Blockchain für Authentifizierung
Tokenisierte Verifizierung/Zertifizierung
Dezentrale Faktenprüfung
Smart Contracts

Schwarzenegger's message to the Russian people: My father was a Nazi. Don't be like him. Putin is a fascist dictator like Hitler. Don't believe his lies. Don't follow his illegal orders. Don't participate in the illegal war against the people of Ukraine.
Am #9November 1938 brannten in Deutschland die Synagogen. 85 Jahre nach der #Reichspogromnacht, hat Bundesminister und Vizekanzler Robert #Habeck den jüdischen Pianisten Igor Levit gefragt, wie es heute ist, Jude in Deutschland zu sein. Danke für das Gespräch, @igorpianist.
World Energy Outlook 2023 is out now! 🚨
Our analysis shows the energy world is set to change significantly by 2030, based on today’s policy settings alone. But stronger efforts will be needed to keep 1.5 °C in reach.

RLHF (reinforcement learning with human feedback) might dramatically increase the reliability of the responses produced by LLMs but it totally kills their creativity.
If we want AI to solve problems in a novel way, then we shouldn't do the same mistakes as we do with our kids and align them too much to a specific bias / way of thinking.
It's always the misfits with "crazy ideas" that drive society and knowledge forward!

"No piece of art has ever emotionally affected me the way this robot arm piece has. It's programmed to try to contain the hydraulic fluid that’s constantly leaking out and required to keep itself running...if too much escapes, it will die so it's desperately trying to pull it back to continue to fight for another day. Saddest part is they gave the robot the ability to do these 'happy dances' to spectators. When the project was first launched it danced around spending most of its time interacting with the crowd since it could quickly pull back the small spillage. Many years later... (as you see it now in the video) it looks tired and hopeless as there isn't enough time to dance anymore.. It now only has enough time to try to keep itself alive as the amount of leaked hydraulic fluid became unmanageable as the spill grew over time. Living its last days in a never-ending cycle between sustaining life and simultaneously bleeding out... (Figuratively and literally as its hydraulic fluid was purposefully made to look like it's actual blood).
"The robot arm finally ran out of hydraulic fluid in 2019, slowly came to a halt and died - And I am now tearing up over a friggin robot arm 😭 It was programmed to live out this fate and no matter what it did or how hard it tried, there was no escaping it. Spectators watched as it slowly bled out until the day that it ceased to move forever. Saying that 'this resonates' doesn't even do it justice imo. Created by Sun Yuan & Peng Yu, they named the piece, 'Can't Help Myself'. What a masterpiece. What a message."
Extended interpretations: the hydraulic fluid in relation to how we kill ourselves both mentally and physically for money just in an attempt to sustain life, how the system is set up for us to fail on purpose to essentially enslave us and to steal the best years of our lives to play the game that the richest people of the world have designed. How this robs us of our happiness, passion and our inner peace. How we are slowly drowning with more responsibilities, with more expected of us, less rewarding pay-offs and less free time to enjoy ourselves with as the years go by. How there's really no escaping the system and that we were destined at birth to follow a pretty specific path that was already laid out before us. How we can give and give and give and how easily we can be forgotten after we've gone.. How we are loved and respected when we are valuable, then one day we aren't any longer and we become a burden...and how our young, free-caring spirit gets stolen from us as we get churned out of the broken system that we are trapped inside of. Can also be seen to represent the human life cycle and the fact that none of us make it out of this world alive. But also can act as a reminder to allow yourself to heal, rest and love with all of your heart. That the endless chase for 'more' isn't necessary in finding your own inner happiness.”

A quick thumbnail sketch to illustrate, very qualitatively, why global heating has accelerated and will continue to do so for years, maybe decades, unless the world community implements new climate and environmental health policies. @UNFCCC@UNEP
@EUBLASORG I'm truly impressed by the consortium's forward-thinking paper on DEFi and regulatory frameworks. Your insights are invaluable. Thank you for your outstanding work in this complex field!
Still a long way to go…. The efforts put forth will undoubtedly benefit society as a whole
