“We are beset with spam calls, spam texts, spam messages on social networks, notifications from apps we forgot we installed, search results that are stuffed with results built specifically to manipulate search engines, emails from companies we’ve bought one thing from, popular home pages full of AI-spun misinformation and algorithms that try and hurt and manipulate us.”
What we tested: Popular home pages on the internet are full of AI-generated misinformation, among other online harms users face.
