CNN ran an article in which they showed that tik-tok’s AI allowed you to pretty much put anything through it. They point out that people could use Hitler’s words, or say things like the earth is flat, etc. Then they put pressure on tik-tok to STOP subscribers from doing this. This is NOT free speech. Basically, CNN is pushing companies to disallow anything that does not match their idea of what is allowed, or more importantly, CNN is using their media to tell others what they are allowed to say and do.
I have seen nurses and MDs on-line claim that vaccinations are causing autism. They point to the increasing autism rate, but ignore the fact that the 1 state, Mississippi, that requires ALL students to have vaccinations has one of the lowest rates.
By allowing freedom of speech, we can tell that our MD and Nursing programs are failing HORRIBLY in that these ppl are not able to think logically about such blatant BS.
True science and democracy REQUIRES true freedom of speech. Social media and our regular news media, including CNN, MSNBC, FOX NEWS, etc are all trying to wipe out free speech and just push their idea of what is allowed vs not. But worse of all, is that politicians on both sides are trying to destroy free speech. Free speech MUST be allowed and to prevail over the political parties, horrible news media and social media that we have.
When it comes to AI-generated data, what should be required is not to stop it or to criminalize such things as making a porno AI of someone or even a failure of a politicians, but to require that ALL AI-GENERATED DATA MUST have water marks, both visible and ideally, invisible, and have it be a crime to REMOVE THOSE.
Do not make it criminal to go after content. Make it criminal to try and deceive.
