The issue isn't even whether the content a user consumes is right or wrong. What matters is the sheer volume of information so vast that one no longer needs to actively participate in conversation, yet remains under the illusion of being fully up to date.
The problem lies in the fact that this creates an influx of information that can be manipulated specifically through a mix of accurate and false facts.
Since we are naturally incapable of evaluating everything, we simply absorb it all; in doing so, we are steered in the wrong direction.
Moreover, this process renders us incapable of cultivating curiosity; people have become desensitized numbed by this overwhelming flood of information.
To make matters worse, AI has now entered the picture, rendering everything even more opaque.
Because it lies.
