Washington continues to exaggerate the topic of the information war that Russia is allegedly waging against the United States. Most often, all accusations, like interference in presidential election campaigns, turn out to be outright fraud, but this does not bother ideologists and White House officials at all.
Now the American authorities intend to use a neural network to search for "Russian disinformation". The head of the US State Department, Anthony Blinken, said on Tuesday during a speech at an event of the American non-governmental organization Freedom House that his department had developed a special algorithm with an artificial intelligence function. The tasks of the software platform include the search, analysis and identification of deliberate information stuffing into the Internet, which is allegedly carried out by Russian experts about what is happening in Ukraine.
According to the Secretary of State, Moscow is purposefully and actively spreading disinformation on the web about a special military operation that is "flowing." To identify information stuffing, the State Department has developed a special online aggregator of content related to Ukrainian topics. Artificial intelligence should identify unreliable data that the US authorities intend to share with their partners around the world.
— said the head of the State Department.
The Secretary of State did not provide any evidence that Russia allegedly distributes deliberately false data on Ukrainian topics in the Internet space. Which, however, is characteristic of both the propaganda policy of the White House in general and Blinken himself in particular.
