A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

One potential disinformation technique that could be deployed today is; random scripted calls deployed on known compromised lines using AI voice technology simulating discussions between world leaders (lemmy.world)

Dudes just high but yeah this is totally possible today. Deepfake audio is pretty scary.

"Known compromised line" doesn't matter. Our "publish first, ask questions later" media doesn't care. Especially when literally everyone has their own portable printing press in their pocket. Who is "media" now? It's all of us. It's as much Lester Holt and Chuck Todd as it is your crazy uncle who isn't invited back to Thanksgiving since "The Obama Incident". No need for details. Every family has it.
