Finally, Harald Lesch also makes an urgent appeal to the audience: “If we do not pay attention to which content we expose ourselves, then we risk getting lost in the flood of slob and fakes.” By “Slob” Lesch means the so-called “AI-Schmodder”. “Terra X – Attention AI-Fake: What else can we believe?” is on Tuesday, 4.
Furthermore, In the new ZDF “Terra X” special issue “Achtung KI-Fake: What else can we believe?”, physicist Harald Lesch talks to Dr. Katja Muñoz. As an example, she cites conspiracy theorists: Who is convinced that the earth is a disk, can hardly be changed by contrary information. This is psychological warfare to manipulate us. According to Muñoz, these four mechanisms determine how people absorb information. When people see something again and again, it gets “a kind of legitimacy,” explains the expert.
In addition, It is precisely these weaknesses that artificial intelligence can exploit in a targeted manner: “This is psychological warfare to manipulate us.” Even the labelling of AI-generated content does not change the actual effect that such videos can have on perception.
