Misinformation on the Web
People are social learners. We develop most of our core beliefs from parents, teaches, and friends. People are able to spread information that is wrong. As social media has grown so has the spread of misinformation. Misinformation posted in this way, on social media, spreads faster that it would if it was in a newspaper. One person sees the information then shares it with friends and family who share it with friends and family, and then it keeps spreading in this manner. Once the misinformation as spread like this it is hard to change what people think. You can post about the correct information with the facts and evidence to back it up but it will not change how the misinformation is spreading. For a more in depth look at how misinformation spreads read the article, How Misinformation Spreads–and Why We Trust It.
AI and Misinformation
Artificial Intelligence is speeding the spread of misinformation and can help in creating articles that seem factual but are not. AI makes it easy for anyone to create an article that might contain misinformation. Some people may not even realize that the article that they just had AI make is not true. AI is being called the “next great misinformation superspreader” because it can generate so many articles that people post in one day. Sometimes it is hard to know if what you are reading is misinformation made by AI or a person, or if it is factual. There are some websites that have AI articles between regular articles. For more information read the article The rise of AI fake news is creating a ‘misinformation superspreader’.
