AI; Makeovers: faces and Teslas!

Are you using AI for search for information. Don't trust it. This is how false information is spread in AI:

This CBC article is important

Typically, April Fool's Day is a day to check sources. These days we have to fact-check everything. Don't repost it, until you check it! 

There are many places to check information: 

  1. FactCheck.org
  2. Snopes.com
  3. Politifact.com
  4. disinfowatch.org

We need to understand: Harvard has a good page:

What's the difference between what a peer-reviewed journal offers and what a website like Wikipedia offers?

Speaking of fact checkers, CTV was prepared to offer a Friday piece, a former CTV reporter, who was covering our Canadian election. They bowed to right-wing pressure. This is a direct attack on journalism and pressure on the press.

Makeovers

That said, the Mar-a-Lago face. It's a thing. I had to look it up. Yes, I fact checked! 

Defined by "copious use of Botox, a Miami-bronze tan, puffy lips and silky-smooth skin" plastic surgeons told the Daily Mail the trend was "giving Trumpland an almost 'plastic' and 'Real Housewives' look".


Kristi Noem, wearing her $50,000 Rolex, has had work done. Those fat Botox lips are not to my taste.
BTW: Kristi Noem's crass photo-op using them as props violates the Geneva Convention's prohibition of ‘exposure to public curiosity’ of those captured.


Even Matt Gaetz has had his fore head wrinkles done.


After and before:

Even Tesla's are getting makeovers! You can buy stickers to put over the logos, or stickers that explain you bought your car prior to Musk flipping.
