A.I. or Russian Troll?

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: codger817@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) or Russian Troll
There was a post a couple of days ago citing a youtube post by Sen. Kennedy of Louisiana deploring the state of our Social Security Administration.
I think the odds are very high the cited youtube story a prime example of “fake news’” designed to reduce our faith in our government.
The first thing that jumps out at me is using Sen. Kennedy of Louisiana. I don’t think Sen. Kennedy is a reliable source on anything but getting votes in Louisiana.
The second thing is the use of youtube as a trusted source. Anybody that can type can post on youtube. I see fake articles from both sides of the political spectrum there all the time.
Thirdly, Dixie’s cites Forbes. Forbes is a classic news source, mostly financial. There is such a thing as Forbes Breaking News. When you search Google for Forbes, their site does indeed have a “Breaking News” heading that lists stories that go back months in time. None of those stories mention Sen. Kennedy and social security.
Fourth, 6.5 million 112-year-olds on the rolls? If anybody understands aging it has to be the Social Security Administration. The number is too preposterous to take seriously.
I may be a starry-liberal, but I think this “news” article was planted solely to erode our trust in our government. I think it’s probably bargain basement A.I. Russian trolls would know better than to use the 6.5 million 112-year-olds number.
Maybe Dixie does have uncanny ability to ferret out truth in unlikely places, but I don’t think so. In this case, I think she was duped.
Sincerely,
Jim Heffernan

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: lynneejacks@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
This Friday, December 19 at 6 PM:

Creative and reflective journaling isn’t just for “writers.” This is for everyone. The simple act of writing helps unlock parts of the subconscious, and is an incredible tool for healing and growth.

Celebrate the solstice by going inward with me. As we approach the longest night of the year, we’ll gather in a cozy space with blankets, candles, tea, and snacks. Together, we’ll move through exercises to help you tap into your inner world and cultivate a personal writing practice.

What to Expect:

– A quiet, relaxing atmosphere to unwind and reflect.
– Guided writing prompts to help your thoughts flow freely.
– Time to share insights and intentions for the year ahead
– Takeaway tools to support a reflective writing practice at home.

Register here before Friday at 9 am: www.sandstonestories.com/event-details/deep-dive-a-winter-solstice-writing-workshop
