Iespēja atradināt no politiskās vientiesības


                       Longum iter est per praecepta, breve et efficax per exampla   
        



            Iespēja atradināt no politiskās lētticības

                                                                    
    Ar valsts varas kontrolēto plašsaziņas līdzekļu izplatīto izsmalcināto aģitāciju, ar totālu propagandu un dezinformāciju tiek nodrošinātas manipulācijas ar vēlētāju prātiem, uzspiežot viņiem bezalternatīvu, pie varas esošo pasaules redzējumu. Vairums ļaužu tam pakļaujas, pieņem politisko līderu priekšstatus par neapšaubāmi patiesiem, pat neredzot, nemēģinot vai nespējot saskatīt viņu vārdu un darbu nesaskaņu.
     Tādā veidā tiek sekmīgi panākta pakļaušanās varas diktātam, vēlētājos tiek uzturēta prāta tumsība, padarot viņus par pakļautām bezgribas būtnēm.
    Lai no tā visa izrautos, lai mainītu šo cilvēka cieņu pazemojošo stāvokli, jāmeklē netriviālas metodes, jārada efektīvas iespējas nest apgaismību sabiedrībā. Darot to cilvēkiem pieņemamā, vienkāršā un saprotamā veidā. … turpinājums grāmatā “Kā atbrīvoties no totalitārisma skavām.

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE …:



Sometimes the most pointed social commentary is best delivered by a giant-eyed, blue-bodied, huggable cartoon character.

In just over two minutes, the animated short A Sad Little Fact asks tough questions about the future of truth itself. Do facts matter in a world where some politicians and pundits lie so regularly and without any accountability? The answer is—and must be—yes, but restoring a public debate grounded in truth is going to take time. And it’s going to require some challenging conversations.

There are big issues raised by this charming and accessible little short; questions that may not have simple answers. But with A Sad Little Fact, families, teachers, and friends have a new tool for starting a conversation that could not be more important.

A Hopeful Story About a Sad Little Fact

TRUTH MATTERS

DECEMBER 04, 2019
BY SARAH MARGON
 Sometimes the most pointed social commentary is best delivered by an adorable, giant-eyed, blue-bodied, and huggable cartoon character.
In just over two minutes, A Sad Little Fact asks tough questions about the future of honesty and truth in an “alternative facts” world. How can we “save” facts when they are relentlessly under attack? Do facts matter in a world where some politicians and pundits lie so regularly and without any accountability? If facts matter, why, and to whom?
One person, unnamed in this animation, looms large off-screen. Since assuming office, U.S. President Donald Trump has made more than 13,000 false or misleading claims, according to the Washington Post, which has been tracking his lies. In an interview on Fox and Friends in late November, Trump made 18 false claims in a 53-minute interview, according to CNN (that’s one lie every 176 seconds). 
As Sacha Baron Cohen told the Anti-Defamation League last month, “There is such a thing as objective truth. Facts do exist.” The Holocaust happened. A man walked on the moon. Twenty-seven children were murdered at Sandy Hook elementary school. Russia hacked the 2016 elections in the United States.
When it comes to human rights, facts can be the difference between life and death. Here are a few recent examples: 
  • Jamal Khashoggi, a U.S. resident and Washington Post columnist who wrote about the Saudi Crown Price, walked into the Saudi Embassy in Ankara for a marriage license and never exited. Instead, he was brutally murdered by Saudi security services. 
  • Myanmar’s military used Facebook to spread hate and fuel a mass atrocity against the Rohingya people. 
  • A few U.S. lawmakers peddled the falsehood that the Open Society Foundations paid protestors and migrants. These lies directly inspired violence; pipe bombs were sent to homes of prominent Democrats. Twelve Jews were murdered at a Pittsburgh Synagogue. 
Since the current U.S. president took office, fact-checking has exploded. There are now more than 200 fact-checking organizations worldwide. Five years ago, there were 44.
Meanwhile, the president’s term “fake news”—which he uses to dismiss media outlets and stories with which he disagrees—has been embraced by repressive leaders around the world. Authoritarian leaders in a number of countries—including in Cambodia, Syria, and the Philippines—now use the term to target independent journalists and human rights activists. By using this term to reject the truth, these leaders entrench and promote fictitious narratives that serve their interests only. 
When President Trump leaves office, this problem won’t leave with him. Restoring a public debate grounded in truth is going to take time. That’s why it is important to tell this story in a way that is provocative for adults, but also can open up a conversation within communities—in an approachable way. 
The assault on facts makes addressing transnational problems like income inequality, migration, and climate change difficult and requires a united response from multiple countries.
I am often asked what can be done to push back against those who threaten basic freedoms, and seem intent on destroying the foundations of democracy. Looking for new ways to share facts and help them resonate with a wider audience so they are relatable to everyone is a tremendously important part of a much longer journey. Starting today, we have a new tool—one that can be used by families, teachers, and friends to start a conversation within their schools, neighborhoods, and communities about the importance of facts, and how we need them to uncover and support the truth.

Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain

Lisa Feldman Barrett

Seven short essays (plus a bite-sized story about how brains evolved) reveal lessons from neuroscience research. Questions like these in any order:
1 where brains came from
2 how they’re structured (and why it matters)
3 how yours works in tandem with other brains to create everything you experience
4 dismiss popular myths
5 idea of a “lizard brain”
6 the alleged battle between thoughts and emotions
7 between nature and nurture
1/2 to determine your behavior

AI chatbot shows promise in talking people out of conspiracy theories

The imperturbable bot succeeds where humans usually fail, experiment finds

  • 12 Sep 2024

Personalized conversations with the “debunkbot” reduced people’s belief in conspiracy theories for up to 2 months.PeopleImages/iStock

You might know someone who thinks the Moon landing was faked or COVID-19 vaccines are full of microchips. Believers cling tenaciously to such conspiracy theories, which have little basis in reality, even when presented with contrary evidence. But according to research published today in Science, some people do change their minds when fact-based arguments are delivered by an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot instead of another human being. Personalized conversations with this “debunkbot” can turn even hardcore conspiracy theorists into budding skeptics, the researchers report.

“It’s really promising to see how AI can play a role in combating misinformation and conspiracy theories,” says Jan-Willem van Prooijen, a behavioral scientist at the Free University of Amsterdam who wasn’t involved in the new study. Generative AI is notorious for spreading falsehoods, most notably through the use of deepfakes, so Van Prooijen finds it “refreshing” to see it used as a force for good.

Be it the belief that the CIA assassinated former President John F. Kennedy or that Area 51 houses alien corpses, nearly half the U.S. population believes in one conspiracy theory or another, according to some estimates. Many psychologists think these beliefs help fulfill underlying psychological needs, such as the desire for security. But hypotheses about such “subterranean motivations” are hard to test, says Thomas Costello, a psychologist at American University and lead author of the new study. The new findings provide “one of the first really strong pieces of evidence that they’re not the whole story,” he says, “or maybe, in fact, that they’re totally wrong.”

When debating conspiracies in real life, believers will often attempt to overwhelm naysayers by quickly presenting as many arguments as possible—a technique known as the Gish gallop. Whereas no human can address all those claims at once, an AI program conceivably could. Costello and his colleagues wanted to know whether large language models (LLMs) such as GPT-4 Turbo, which process and generate huge amounts of information in seconds, could debunk conspiracy theories with what Costello describes as “tailored persuasions.”

The team recruited more than 2000 participants who professed a belief in at least one conspiracy theory, which they define as the belief that important events or situations—the Kennedy assassination or the COVID-19 pandemic—were secretly orchestrated by powerful people or organizations. Next, they had these people engage in a brief conversation with an LLM chatbot. Each person shared with the AI what they believed, the evidence they felt supported it, and rated how confident they were that the theory was true. The chatbot—trained on a wide range of publicly available information from books, online discussions, and other sources—refuted each claim with specific, fact-based counterarguments. These conversations reduced people’s confidence in their conspiracy theories, on average, by 20%.

These reductions were remarkably persistent, lasting up to 2 months, and appeared to work across a wide variety of theories. “The fact that it worked so well for so long is what stood out to me,” says Ethan Porter, a political scientist and disinformation researcher at George Washington University who wasn’t involved in the study.

Part of the reason debunkbot is so successful, Van Prooijen reasons, is that it remains “very polite,” whereas human conversations about similar topics can easily get “heated and disrespectful.” And whereas someone might worry about friends or family members judging them for altering their beliefs, it’s impossible to “lose face” in front of an AI model, he adds.

When Costello and his colleagues repeated their experiment with a chatbot that engaged with participants but didn’t formulate fact-based counterarguments, they saw no effect, suggesting the presentation of evidence was critical. “Without facts, it couldn’t do its job,” Costello says.

Still, the rhetoric involved may be critical to persuasion, says Federico Germani, a disinformation researcher at the University of Zürich. Because LLMs train on real conversations, he explains, they pick up on subtle rhetorical strategies that make their arguments more persuasive, even when a prompt has instructed them to rely purely on facts. “The authors are probably underestimating that, in between the lines, the AI is very good at manipulating,” he says.

Psychologists at the University of Kent, writing in a joint statement, also question whether the findings upend the prevailing idea that conspiracy theories fulfill unmet psychological needs. Aleksandra Cichocka, Robbie Sutton, and Karen Douglas say in a joint statement that because the study authors didn’t directly measure whether participants felt their needs were satisfied after conversing with the chatbot, it’s impossible to know whether that influenced their change of mind. Indeed, subjects were still quite confident in their theories even after the AI tried to debunk them, suggesting these underlying motivations still played a powerful role in their beliefs.

Although conspiracy theorists are unlikely to engage with debunkbot voluntarily, Germani and Van Prooijen note the AI could potentially bolster existing technological responses. Many social media sites already have strategies in place to flag potential misinformation, such as the Community Notes feature on X, and this new model could provide additional information refuting it.

People could also use debunkbot to quickly and thoroughly fact-check new claims they’ve heard, cultivating a healthy level of skepticism and making it less likely that they will fall down the misinformation rabbit hole in the future, Costello notes. “You can almost think of these chatbots as a form of epistemic hygiene,” he explains, “like brushing your teeth, but for your mind.”
