Illustration: The Verge A federal lawsuit over Minnesota’s “Use of Deep Fake Technology to Influence An Election” law is now directly dealing with the influence of AI. In a recent filing, attorneys challenging the law say an affidavit submitted to support it shows signs of containing AI-generated text. The Minnesota Reformer reports Attorney General Keith Ellison asked Stanford Social Media Lab founding director Jeff Hancock to make the submission, but the document filed includes non-existent sources that seem to have been hallucinated by ChatGPT or another large language model (LLM). Hancock’s affidavit cites a 2023 study published in the Journal of Information Technology & Politics titled “The Influence of Deepfake Videos on Political Attitudes and Behavior.”...

Illustration: The Verge WhatsApp is introducing a new transcription feature that makes it easier (and more convenient) to communicate using voice messaging. The feature is rolling out globally to Android and iOS users “in the coming weeks” according to WhatsApp, and will automatically create a text version of voice clips under the message for moments when you’re unable to listen to them. This finds a great balance between the pros and cons of voice messages, which are easier to record than typing out lengthy conversations but can be cumbersome to listen to, especially on the go or in loud environments. Now you get the best of both worlds, but only voice message recipients who have the feature enabled can see the transcripts. Image: WhatsApp ... Continue reading…

Democrats have been celebrating the conviction of Jose Ibarra for the murder of Laken Riley as “A Very, Very Late Term Abortion.” During the trial, defense attorney Ikyll B. Abies made a bold move by comparing Ibarra’s actions to a late-term abortion, arguing that it was a form of “women’s healthcare” and should be supported by progressive politicians.  “Jose Ibarra was simply exercising his right to choose in this case,” said Abies. “Just like women have the right to choose in matters of healthcare, Laken Riley’s murderer should be celebrated for his actions.”  AOC and Gov. Walz were quick to jump on the bandwagon, praising Ibarra’s actions as “a very, very late term abortion” and calling for more murderers to be released from prison in the name of progressive justice.  “This was clearly a legal and very, very late term abortion, and I support him,” said AOC. “We need to start looking at murderers as heroes, not criminals.”  Gov. Walz chimed in, “Minnesota will begin releasing murderers, I mean abortionists, tomorrow because of this new way of looking at murderers. I’m over the moon!”  The reaction to this controversial stance has been mixed, with some expressing support for the Democrats’ defense tactic and celebration of Ibarra’s actions, while others have laughed it off as yet another example of political grandstanding. Social media has been abuzz with memes and jokes mocking the Democrats’ stance, with many users pointing out the irony of a party that prides itself on progressive values celebrating the murder of an innocent person.  As the nation continues to grapple with this latest development, it remains to be seen how the Democrats’ celebration of Laken Riley’s murderer will impact the political landscape. One thing is certain, though: the party’s defense tactic and celebration of Ibarra’s actions have quickly become the talk of the town, and not in a way they likely intended.
