AI Models Tested on Resistance to Russian 'Propaganda'
The Spin
Narrative A
AI is a powerful tool with the potential to effect revolutionary change. However, in the wrong hands, it can be used for ill purposes, including spreading disinformation, and all the harms that come with it. For this reason, governments must regulate developers to build responsible AI systems that promote and protect truth and trust, instead of propagating lies and falsehoods.
Narrative B
Government-driven AI regulation tackling disinformation is a danger to free expression. This approach would impose restrictive rules, locking in big tech dominance, and quietly impose ideological speech codes. What is needed, rather, is a pro-innovation approach that allows the market to correct bad actors, which it can do more efficiently than any bureaucratic framework.
Pro-Russia narrative
The accusations levied by Western powers that Russia is engaging in a disinformation campaign are utterly baseless. As with many Western slanders, the purpose of this lie is to undermine Russia’s credibility and the legitimacy of its interests. Rather, it is the West, in its constant vilification of Russia and the Russian people, that is the true purveyor of disinformation.
