Have you seen the behavior of all big tech companies in the US for the past few decades?

Chinese CEOs would be sentenced to death for 1/100th of the things American AI CEOs have done.

American CEOs are almost comic book levels of evil.

>Like how on the whole China/Asia poll more favourably in public perception and adoption of AI.

If I was Chinese I'd probably have more faith that AI advances are going to benefit society as a whole than just a few tech billionaires.

As an American, not so much.

I'm skeptical that the misinformation campaigns are run by China, et al. but I do believe there are a number of competing interests directly manipulating public perception.

And surely “the public” doesn’t include “thepryz” though!

I shouldn’t dignify that with a response, but you may want to learn more about illusory truth. Everyone is susceptible to manipulation.

You may find some of the work done by Oxford Internet Institute’s Computational Propaganda Project to be interesting.
