    *where you think they sourced from AI

    you have no proof other than seeing ghosts everywhere.

    Not get me wrong, fact checking posts is important, but you have no evidence if it is AI, human brain fart or targeted disinformations 🤷🏻‍♀️

      No I mean they literally label the post as “Gemini said this”

      I see family do it too, type something into Gemini and just assume it looked it up or something.

        I see no problem if the poster gives the info, that the source is AI. This automatically devalues the content of the post/comment and should trigger the reaction that this information is to be taken with a grain of salt and it needs to factchecked in order to improve likelihood that that what was written is fact.

        An AI output is most of the time a good indicator about what the truth is, and can give new talking points to a discussion. But it is of course not a “killer-argument”.
