Surgeon general just called for an expansion of AI censorship, including real-time streams.

Strengthen the monitoring of misinformation. Platforms should increase staffing of multilingual content moderation teams and improve the effectiveness of machine learning algorithms in languages other than English since non- English-language misinformation continues to proliferate. Platforms should also address misinformation in live streams, which are more difficult to moderate due to their temporary nature and use of audio and video.

@icedquinn

I have **no** problem with the government spending money on science backed educational programs to help get people making better decisions... but actually forcing the speech of others in one way or the other, such as censorship... fuck no.

@freemo esp since it's already been established the misinformation programs are corrupt (ex. explicitly naming compounds misinformation despite peer review)

@icedquinn

Well whether they are corrupt or not its clear agenda has gotten so strong its less about cold hard facts and more about selling a specific idea, even if that means controlling the narrative.
