News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

So far while poking around in certain places just to see what other reactions are floating around out there are, I've seen:
"Who created this AI slop?"
"Written by someone from MSM for clicks."
"Why didn't Biden release this, clearly fake."
"This is worse than the fake birthday card."
"Clearly not related to Trump, but instead Clinton."
Intense cope is how I see it. Could it be fake? Maybe. I try to draw upon the things that have been said in the past, actions clearly on record/tape, literal confessions that are public from years ago, real-time goal post moving, and delection attempts.
Innocent people don't usually jump through so many hoops.
Apparently, this was first released in 2023, during the Biden administration, and just sat there. Perhaps the media deserves some blame for not doing their jobs, as usual.
Ah, yes, clearly AI handwriting
They constantly repeat shit without really understanding it, a lot like parrots. They obviously don't know how to actually identify AI slop.
Remember the kids doing non-technical degrees at college? Some of them are now journalists.
Correct, but we are seeing that they will use it as a convenient go-to excuse for EVERYTHING.
It also means that since they are so sure that Libz are producing AI slop to tar & feather them, they'll rationalize that they have the right to use it in return, except their AI really will be slop, because they're collectively too virtuosically stupid and incompetent to do anything correctly.
None of us will know the difference between "AI Slop" and the truth within a year.
I heard this more than a few times over a year ago. Sure, it's getting better, but there will always be limitations and weak points, even if they require more effort to detect.
Good Critical Thinking Skills will expose most of it right out of the gate.
