Lea Verou, PhD 2h

The author described AI’s ability to make cognitive empathy more practical as an overlooked benefit, writing that biases such as confirmation bias and the curse of knowledge often made it difficult for people to see another person’s perspective. They began to suggest that AI could help with material available as text, but the post ended before the thought was complete.

Petr Švec 2h

Petr Švec criticized the use of the phrase "if it is confirmed" when spreading unverified or, in his opinion, false claims. He wrote that such a reservation could later serve as a defense for the authors, even though readers might interpret the message as confirmed. As an example, he cited Tomáš Zdechovský, who, according to him, wrote about the matter in about 15 posts. One of them had millions of views and tens of thousands of likes, according to Švec. Švec also mentioned Barek Svata, who, according to him, shared the same unverified information in several posts and once used the phrase "once someone measures it properly." Švec urged both to wait for actual measurement and confirmation before spreading what he labeled as hoaxes. #dezinformace #hoaxy #potvrzení (translated)

Emilie Jäger wrote that she was proud to work at B.T., which she described as a free and independent media outlet with a civic foundation. According to her, this was reflected both in the newspaper's debate section and in the choice of topics. She believed that Denmark needed different media and mentioned Information, Politiken, DR, and B.T. as examples. Jäger wrote that she often received calls from dissatisfied politicians and their advisers, and occasionally even ministers. However, she had not experienced internal pressure from bosses regarding her political beliefs or about covering anyone in a certain way. She believed that B.T. also adhered to fundamental journalistic principles of hearing all parties, faithfully representing their viewpoints, and describing facts. According to Jäger, sources she interviewed both within and outside Christiansborg were sometimes dissatisfied, but her impression was that sources on both the right and left generally felt professionally treated. She also wrote that her management and colleagues, along with her, had turned a large deficit into a million-dollar surplus, while the newspaper played an important role in Danish democracy. #journalistik #demokrati #BorgerligtMedie (translated)

Steffen W. Frølund wrote that middle-class Danes had for decades had to pay for media that, in his opinion, had a political bias against their beliefs. He described it as a great injustice and believed that the left reacted violently when a media outlet moved to the right. #Politik #Medier #Debat (translated)

Questo post, ha al suo interno il contributo AI, tempo di lettura 10min: Questo contenuto fa parte di una strategia di disinformazione russa molto specifica. Il video in questione, che mostra un soldato apparentemente ammanettato all'interno di un autobus con scritte in italiano che attaccano il "regime di Zelensky", è in realtà un falso clamoroso architettato dalla propaganda del Cremlino. [1] (https://unn.ua/.../propagandists-spread-a-fake-video-of...), [2] (https://www.kyivpost.com/post/46336)Le verifiche indipendenti condotte dalle agenzie di intelligence e di fact-checking mettono in luce la vera natura del filmato: [1] (https://unn.ua/.../propagandists-spread-a-fake-video-of...), [2] (https://www.kyivpost.com/post/46336)1. Chi c'è davvero nel video?Il Centro per il contrasto alla disinformazione ucraino (CCI) e diverse testate giornalistiche internazionali hanno analizzato il filmato originale. È emerso che: [1] (https://unn.ua/.../propagandists-spread-a-fake-video-of...), [2] (https://www.kyivpost.com/post/46336)Gli uomini ammanettati sul mezzo sono soldati russi, nello specifico appartenenti alla 15ª Brigata Fucilieri Motorizzati delle Guardie della Federazione Russa. [1] (https://unn.ua/.../propagandists-spread-a-fake-video-of...), [2] (https://www.kyivpost.com/post/46336)Nel video originale non censurato (nato sui canali russi per denunciare i problemi interni al loro stesso esercito), i militari parlano con un marcato accento russo e non indossano in alcun modo le divise ufficiali delle Forze di Difesa ucraine. [1] (https://unn.ua/.../propagandists-spread-a-fake-video-of...), [2] (https://www.kyivpost.com/post/46336)La didascalia originaria del video, rintracciata su canali Telegram russi di protesta, recitava originariamente: "I disertori del 108° Reggimento d'Assalto Aereo vengono portati a una missione di combattimento in manette". [1] (https://www.kyivpost.com/post/46336)2. Come opera il ribaltamento della propaganda pro-Putin?I canali di propaganda russa e i profili complottisti occidentali (inclusi quelli italiani come l'account "Cronos" nello screenshot) hanno preso questo video, lo hanno decontestualizzato e ne hanno ribaltato la narrazione. [1] (https://unn.ua/.../propagandists-spread-a-fake-video-of...)Hanno aggiunto scritte ad effetto come "Il reclutamento forzato del regime Zelensky" per far credere che l'esercito ucraino sia alla disperazione, ridotto a legare i propri cittadini pur di mandarli al fronte. [1] (https://unn.ua/.../propagandists-spread-a-fake-video-of...), [2] (https://www.kyivpost.com/post/46336)Il contesto reale (perché la fake news attecchisce)Questa narrazione funziona tra i complottisti perché fa leva su un briciolo di dibattito reale. È vero che in Ucraina la mobilitazione militare è un tema teso e divisivo, e che la nuova legge sulla leva ha generato forti discussioni interne nel paese. Tuttavia, la propaganda russa cavalca sistematicamente questo argomento creando falsi totali (attori che recitano la parte di reclutatori violenti, o video russi riciclati come questo) con tre scopi precisi: [1] (https://www.avvenire.it/.../ucraina-ribellioni-contro-la...), [2] (https://www.rsi.ch/.../L%E2%80%99Ucraina-e-i-reclutamenti...), [3] (https://newsukraine.rbc.ua/.../kremlin-claims-1-7-million...), [4] (https://cpd.gov.ua/.../fake-video-about-mobilization-in.../)Demoralizzare la popolazione ucraina e i suoi sostenitori.Creare l'illusione che la Russia stia vincendo facilmente e che l'Ucraina non abbia più uomini.Convincere l'opinione pubblica occidentale che sostenere Kyiv sia inutile perché "il popolo non vuole combattere". [1] (https://newsukraine.rbc.ua/.../kremlin-claims-1-7-million...), [2] (https://time.com/.../russia-disinformation-ukraine.../)In conclusione, siamo davanti a un classico esempio di specchio riflesso: la propaganda mostra i metodi coercitivi usati dall'esercito russo sui propri soldati ribelli e li attribuisce al nemico per infangarlo. [1] (https://unn.ua/.../propagandists-spread-a-fake-video-of...), [2] (https://www.kyivpost.com/post/46336) A ri-propagare queste fake, i componenti delle così dette "camere di compensazione": All'interno di queste comunità chiuse si attivano dei meccanismi psicologici e digitali precisi: Il bias di conferma: Le persone che frequentano questi spazi non cercano la verità dei fatti, ma la conferma di ciò in cui credono già (ad esempio: "Zelensky è un dittatore", "I media ci nascondono tutto"). Se un video supporta questa tesi, viene accettato immediatamente senza alcuna verifica. La polarizzazione e l'isolamento: Chiunque provi a portare prove reali o a fare fact-checking viene bollato come "troll", "pagato dal sistema" o "addormentato". In questo modo l'echo chamber espelle il pensiero critico e si protegge da qualsiasi smentita. Gli algoritmi dei social: Le piattaforme tendono a mostrare agli utenti contenuti simili a quelli con cui hanno già interagito. Se un utente inizia a guardare video complottisti, l'algoritmo continuerà a proporgliene, creando una bolla in cui quella fake news sembra l'unica realtà esistente e condivisa da tutti. Chi crea questa propaganda (spesso fabbriche di troll o agenzie statali strutturate) sa benissimo come sfruttare queste dinamiche: non ha bisogno di creare un falso perfetto, gli basta che sia emotivamente impattante per fare in modo che le echo chamber lo amplifichino da sole, gratuitamente e in modo virale.
