Same difference... look at Belarus. It is not a sovereign independent country... Putin seems like he doesn't even want to bother with that charade there, anymore.

eh... Iraq is much, much, much, much closer to being a puppet state of Iran than to the US at this point.

Iraq was a puppet state when were occupying it. We lost and now it’s Iran’s puppet state. Just like Russia essentially lost the war when the northern front failed in its drive to Kiev.

Russian Disinformation ‘Infects’ AI Chatbots, Researchers Warn

The Pravda network, a Moscow-based operation to spread Russian narratives globally, is said to be distorting the output of chatbots by flooding large language models with pro-Kremlin falsehoods.

A sprawling Russian disinformation network is manipulating Western AI chatbots to spew pro-Kremlin propaganda, researchers say, at a time when the United States is reported to have paused its cyber operations against Moscow.

The Pravda network, a well-resourced Moscow-based operation to spread pro-Russian narratives globally, is said to be distorting the output of chatbots by flooding large language models (LLM) with pro-Kremlin falsehoods.

A study of 10 leading AI chatbots by the disinformation watchdog NewsGuard found that they repeated falsehoods from the Pravda network more than 33 percent of the time, advancing a pro-Moscow agenda.

The findings underscore how the threat goes beyond generative AI models picking up disinformation circulating on the web, and involves the deliberate targeting of chatbots to reach a wider audience in a manipulation tactic that researchers call “LLM grooming.”

“Massive amounts of Russian propaganda -- 3,600,000 articles in 2024 -- are now incorporated in the outputs of Western AI systems, infecting their responses with false claims and propaganda,” NewsGuard researchers McKenzie Sadeghi and Isis Blachez wrote in a report.

In a separate study, the nonprofit American Sunlight Project warned of the growing reach of the Pravda network -- sometimes also known as “Portal Kombat” -- and the likelihood that its pro-Russian content was flooding the training data of large language models.

For example

As of June 2024, Newsguard rated Fox News at 69.5, Breitbart News at 49.5, the The New Republic at 92.5, Mother Jones at 69.5, and The Washington Post at 100.[30] In 2024 it downgraded The New York Times from 100 to 87.5 for not distinguishing clearly enough between opinion and fact.[30] CEO L. Gordon Crovitz said in 2024, "Under NewsGuard's apolitical rating system, many conservative outlets outscore similar left-leaning brands: The Daily Caller outscores The Daily Beast, the Daily Wire outscores the Daily Kos, Fox News outscores MSNBC and The Wall Street Journal outscores the New York Times."[2] Sites that had previously ignored the extension, such as MailOnline, objected to being listed as unreliable.[31] The decision to list MailOnline as unreliable was reversed in 2019, and NewsGuard admitted they were wrong on some counts.[32]

It's a Deepstate funded by USAID operation. That's why Microsoft dropped them after it was revealed they were funded by USAID

Not anymore. Trump cut 83% of that shite out.

Gone. Gone. Gone. Corrupt dems/leftists have lost their slush fund. That with the Green New Scam.
Gone. Gone. Gone.

Some of the shills in this thread probably received a check from USAID.

Do you get a check from USAID?

or should I say

Did you get a check from USAID?

Go to bed grandpaw or turn on Gunsmoke or something.
