„Unverständnis“ & vor allem „Abscheu“ trifft es gut, da die #Zerblasung gezielt konstruktiven #Dialog durch emotionalen Freund - Feind - #Dualismus ersetzt.

Angesichts des schon „alten“ #Microtargeting & der gezielten, medialen Befeuerung von Konflikten durch #Putin - Trolle gehe ich jedoch fast davon aus, dass die mehrdimensionale #Spaltung der Gesellschaften hin zu einer fossilen #Zerblasung im #Fossilismus gewollt ist.

De promotie van geweld tegen vrouwen en sexueel misbruik door #Meta.

Laatst had ik nog een discussie over het gevaar van het delen van privegegevens op #socialemedia en met #chatbots. Dat #microtargeting een enorme invloed zal hebben op hoe de wereld door de slachtoffers wordt gezien. Bijna zonder uitzondering wordt mij te kennen gegeven dat ik overdrijf, dat er wat met mij aan de hand is, dat ik mij zoveel zorgen maak.

"Prominent voices worry that generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) will negatively impact elections worldwide and trigger a misinformation apocalypse. A recurrent fear is that GenAI will make it easier to influence voters and facilitate the creation and dissemination of potent mis- and disinformation. We argue that despite the incredible capabilities of GenAI systems, their influence on election outcomes has been overestimated. Looking back at 2024, the predicted outsized effects of GenAI did not happen and were overshadowed by traditional sources of influence. We review current evidence on the impact of GenAI in the 2024 elections and identify several reasons why the impact of GenAI on elections has been overblown. These include the inherent challenges of mass persuasion, the complexity of media effects and people’s interaction with technology, the difficulty of reaching target audiences, and the limited effectiveness of AI-driven microtargeting in political campaigns. Additionally, we argue that the socioeconomic, cultural, and personal factors that shape voting behavior outweigh the influence of AI-generated content. We further analyze the bifurcated discourse on GenAI’s role in elections, framing it as part of the ongoing “cycle of technology panics.” While acknowledging AI’s risks, such as amplifying social inequalities, we argue that focusing on AI distracts from more structural threats to elections and democracy, including voter disenfranchisement and attacks on election integrity. The paper calls for a recalibration of the narratives around AI and elections, proposing a nuanced approach that considers AI within broader sociopolitical contexts."

Datenschutz stört, wenn ein Dienst/ App nur einen Collateralnutzen für die User ins Schaufenster stellt, aber im Kern die Interessen von Politik, Staat und Wirtschaft bedienen soll. Das Märchen von der Fortschrittsbremse.

There is little research on #microtargeting ads so far. Mona Krewel & Jeanelle Frontin researched their impact in U.S. presidential #elections with the Meta Ad Data Set. They show that surprisingly not gender, age or location are used for targeting, but a persons interests instead. #WIConf2025

Their echo chamber is fueled by right wing news outlets, but the real division was sown a while ago by #algorighmic #socialmedia and #microtargeting

#bigtech didn't use 'divide and conquer', they used 'atomise and conquer' 😒

And meanwhile the masses are cooperating in their own surveillance by feeding #surveillancecapitalism

Any suggestions for how to bring people back to the 'shared centre'?

Their echo chamber is fueled by right wing news outlets, but the real division was sown a while ago by #algorighmic #socialmedia and #microtargeting

#bigtech didn't use 'divide and conquer', they used 'atomise and conquer' 😒

And meanwhile the masses are cooperating in their own surveillance by feeding #surveillancecapitalism

Any suggestions for how to bring people back to the 'shared centre'?

This is what we're up against. Fact-free CERTAINTY from #MAGA muppets:

@OmasgR Weil ihr einen Mastodon-Account bei #Digitalcourage habt, interessiert es euch vielleicht, dass Digitalcourage die Leute, bei denen ihr eure "Petition" untergebracht habt, vor 9 Jahren einen mit einem #BigBrotherAward geächtet hat: https://bigbrotherawards.de/2016/changeorg

Damals waren die #innnit-Leute noch der deutsche Arm von #changeOrg. Inzwischen wird change.org in Deutschland von einem anderen Team gemacht.

Ich fand die Laudatio für diesen Negativpreis nicht besonders gelungen. Die Preisvergabe war umstritten. Ich halte sie aber immer noch für gerechtfertigt, weil ich damals bei meinen Recherchen darauf stieß, dass change.org damit warb, Daten der Mitzeichnenden schön als Profil aufbereitet an Interessierte zu verkaufen, z.B. für #Microtargeting im britischen Wahlkampf. Nach der Preisvergabe gelobte change.org, damit aufzuhören. Warum sich Innnit später selbständig gemacht hat, ist mir nicht bekannt.
