What is more interesting to me is how there’s searingly endless reporting on Israel doing this but virtually none on Qatar, Iran, and Turkey doing exactly the same thing on a far greater scale.
It's not surprising to see any number of players running these kinds of campaigns. LLMs are already influencing people at scale.
SEO was a powerful technique 20 years ago, but today the power lies in optimizing content for the ability to influence LLM training. LLM influence is a battle ground that marketing companies and political movements are contending for.
I think it may get a bit more attention in the US due to Section 219 of NDAA 2027, which does add more layers to the situation than say, Turkiye. The implications are on a different level. And with all four frontier models having contracts with the Pentagon, it has me thinking too.
The slave trade was a bloodbath. The Sassoon family opium trade and opium war was a bloodbath. Mao was a bloodbath. Stalin was a bloodbath. WWI and II were bloodbaths. The middle east was and is a bloodbath. Ukraine is a bloodbath.
Dupe? or manipulate ai chatbots to have favorable views of Israel?
It's amazing that they want to influence chatbots when they (Smotrich) publicly says:
“kill 30 or 40” people in Gaza every night and go beyond “those who pose a danger … at that particular moment”.
Why bother trying to influence public and online discourse when it's this blatant.
"fake think tank" sounds a bit redundant

This doesn't align with my experience - but happy to be proven wrong if evidence can be produced.
Do you have evidence?

Oh someone is badder than me so I’m allowed to do bad things.

What is more interesting to me is how every HN post has jews in it repeating lies to drown out the truth
What's more interesting to me is the number of antisemitic/Nazi accounts on HN.
