Is Generative AI a Post-Truth Technology?

#TruthAI is what interrelates representations (data and information, learning and knowledge, concepts and ideas, thoughts and inferences, models and theories, observations and simulations, statements and sentences) with the world of reality, its things and facts, states of affairs, events and processes in terms of causal interrelationships.

Or, the truth or the falsity of something is determined by how it relates to a reality; that is, by whether it is true of false of that reality. As Aristotle claims in Metaphysics: "To say that that which is, is not, and that which is not, is, is a falsehood; therefore, to say that which is, is, and that which is not, is not, is true".

Post-truth (PT) or post-reality (PR) is what comes after truth and reality, as inventing and mixing various types of truth, as objective, normative, subjective or composite.

Objective Truth is what exists in reality and can be proved experimentally;

Normative Truth is what we, as a group, community, nation or society, agree is true;

Subjective Truth is how an individual sees or experiences the world, having its own subjective realities;

It is when "objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief".

The phenomenon of post-truth is specifically concerned with 21st century information and communication technologies, its leading emerging technologies, as artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning.

Advancements in statistical machine learning and stochastic narrow/weak artificial intelligence and cloud computing technologies, GPU VMs (Graphic Processing Units Virtual Machines) and Platform Services, have enabled the sophistication of audio, video, and image manipulation techniques with speed and ease.

Any scenarios, fake, made up, and not actual, can be made real by AI-generated synthetic media, as part of the so-called generative AI, deepfakes ML/DL technologies.

#GenerativeAI is a post-reality technology to create fake/false/irresponsible/amoral content (text, images, video, audio, code or synthetic data) due to its defective design model from scraping the internet data sets to train their generative models.

#PostrealityAI technology can produce outputs that are difficult to trace back to the responsible parties, which makes it challenging to hold individuals or organizations accountable for fake news or deepfake videos generated by the post-truth AI.
