Voters in Germany are being exposed to copious far-right narratives online from AI-generated content and Russian disinformation campaigns.
Experts monitoring social media say Russian-based groups are involved, including “Doppelganger” and “Storm-1516”, which US officials found to be active in America’s election last year.
Some of these campaigns are using artificial intelligence to spread their messaging ahead of Sunday’s vote, which will see Germany elect a new Bundestag.
Germany’s far-right party Alternative for Deutschland (AfD) has been more active on social media than other parties during the campaign and is in second place in opinion polls.
Methods are said to include creating fake TV news stories or deep-fake videos of apparent “witnesses” or “whistle blowers” fabricating stories about prominent politicians.
wow that’s shocking that pro-russian far right extremists would use mass flooding of fake shit to manipulate elections! 😮
love to see the new tech being used for exactly what it was made for <3
Ban Meta Xitter and Tik Tok.
I’d hope there’s also a plan of action besides just monitoring these groups.
Internet was a mistake.
Unless Germany wants to be part of Soviet block again, Germans must choose wisely this election. Kick out the Russian funded AfD from Germany or maybe send them to America where they can spread their Nazi propaganda with their new master the Apartheid Skum.
We need to realize that the us oligarchy in coalition with russian oligarchy is using social networks and LLM’s to wage a hybrid war over us. Their goal is to change our govs with their agents like AfD.
We need to ban them yestarday. Tomorrow will be late.
Keep sucking up all that content in the name of free speech folks. See where that leads you
Until there is proper full moderation of social media sites like this, they should be blocked.
Out future is at stake.

Not surprised
You need to at least use the same weapons or the Russia has already won.
