More on the matter of X account origins

In the future, AI chatbots may weave ads invisibly into “helpful” advice, steering conversations without you even knowing, argues Daniel Barcay, executive director of the Center for Humane Technology. When the AI we rely on starts steering us for revenue, not our goals, human autonomy is at risk.

💬 Lessons from Building an Online Toolkit to Aid Open-Source Investigations Publicly available sources can be a tool for all journalists, writes @johannawild.bsky.social of @bellingcat.com. niemanreports.org/osint-open-s...

Where do they come from?! New feature on X to reveal origins of accounts - flaws attached.

Today on @indicator.media's (free) Briefing: A twinkle of optimism on the AI slop front as TikTok and Google roll out tools to filter and detect AI content. I remain bearish about generative AI and info quality. But I’ll celebrate developments that increase user agency and platform transparency.

In October 2025, veraAI project members based at the University of Urbino (@giadam.bsky.social, @fabiogiglietto.bsky.social and @brupar.bsky.social) went to Brazil to present and share their research findings at a variety of events. Find out what they did in this post.

Great news!! Our scientific director Professor Kalina Bontcheva @sheffieldnlp.bsky.social at @sheffielduni.bsky.social has been appointed Chair of Working Group 1 for the new Code of Practice on the #Transparency of #AI -Generated Content. www.veraai.eu/posts/kalina...

On 31 October, our project officially ended. Now, we’re starting to wrap up. This will take until early December 2025. We‘ll continue to remain active. In particular, we will point to outcomes and results of our work. So stay tuned!

A4. AI is only part of the answer. Ideally, it should provide enough information for people to make their own judgement. Together with @vera-ai.bsky.social y.social, we specifically surveyed in the #aicodeproject the role of AI and LLMs in credibility assessment: doi.org/10.1145/3770...

More action shots, or better: snapshots of our presence at #Disinfo2025 in Ljubljana. 600+ people attended the event, organized by @disinfo.eu. A summary report of what we did and learned will be published on the veraAI project website soon.

Looking back and ahead: here's the veraAI project team that was present and represented our project at the @disinfo.eu #Disinfo2025 in Ljubljana a short while ago. A recap will follow. Sadly, the project is approaching its end (on 31 October 2025). However, work and outcomes will live on!

Hi. I wrote an essay about AI slop: How it feels like an invasive species for the internet. How its boosters describe building a future that’s devoid of craft. How frictionlessness can be nihilistic & how this stuff seems to leach part of our shared humanity out of the world. I hope you'll read it.

✨Thank you to everybody who joined us at #Disinfo2025! Over the past two days, we've shared inspiring conversations, insightful panels, and though-provoking presentations. We look forward to continuing the conversation - and to seeing you at #Disinfo2026!

Reminder: @disinfo.eu‘s #Disinfo2025 takes place from 15–16 October 2025 at Cankarjev Dom in Ljubljana, Slovenia. We‘ll be there! Will you, too?! www.disinfo.eu/conference
