Bay Area woman is on a crusade to prove Yelp reviews can’t be trusted
So many people see the brewing storm of AI as dystopian, but this is one of the tasks that it could be quite good at.<p>Humans are biased, deceptive creatures and whether intentional or not we can misrepresent ourselves, others and every...thing. AI would definitely help to drop a "badge of approval" on something in some cases.<p>Reviews for restaurants may be harder, but just simple fact checking it's going to be so amazing to have a trusted AI that can say "yep, this is most likely true" with a click-through to references/sources/reasons why.<p>Look at trending Twitter tags, I've been looking at #ukrainerussiawar etc a lot and sometimes like 90% of the tweets have _nothing_ to do with the topic, jsut shameless self-promotion spamming tags, or misinformation tweets from either Russia's information warfare team, or quite simply right wing morons parroting propaganda. Would be nice to make all of that go away...
