This dude needs popping pretty smartish. I can't believe the ease in which he's got his fingers on government systems and data, I'm not sure that combining that access with AI is a great idea

really interesting to learn that musk is grabbing access to data here, there and everywhere, yet since purchasing twitter he has restricted access to the data it collects. double standards much?
 
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/feb/11/far-right-mps-fake-news-misinformation-left-study

The research draws on every tweet posted between 2017 and 2022 by every member of parliament with a Twitter (now X) account in 26 countries: 17 EU members including Austria, France, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden, but also the UK, US and Australia.
It then compared that dataset – 32m tweets from 8,198 MPs – with international political science databases containing detailed information on the parties involved, such as their position on the left-right spectrum and their degree of populism.

Finally, the researchers scraped factchecking and fake news-tracking services to build a dataset of 646,058 URLs, each with an associated “factuality rating” based on the reliability of its source – and compared that data with the 18m URLs shared by the MPs.

By crunching all the different datasets together, the researchers were able to create what they described as an aggregate “factuality score” for each politician and each party, based on the links that MPs had shared on Twitter.

The data showed conclusively that far-right populism was “the strongest determinant for the propensity to spread misinformation”, they concluded, with MPs from centre-right, centre-left and far-left populist parties “not linked” to the practice.

Thing is, that piece of text you've just quoted there...it's great, it shows the situation clearly and unambiguously. The problem with it, is that those that need to read it won't get past the first two sentences. Woke experts blah.

I mean there were at least 1400 victims in just Rotherham, so it's not a wild take. Obviously they don't actually care about the victims (especially those from paedophile rings made up of white men) but we can't pretend it's not a problem just because racists are weaponising it.
