AI-generated propaganda as effective as original propaganda, finds new study
propaganda is almost as effective and persuasive as real propaganda, a team of researchers have found after a study involving more than 8,000 US adults. They also warned that propagandists could use artificial intelligence (AI) to expose citizens to many articles, thereby increasing the volume of propaganda and making them harder to detect. For the study, researchers at the Stanford University and the Georgetown University in the US identified six English language articles, which, according to investigative journalists and the research community, likely originated from Iranian or Russian state-aligned covert propaganda campaigns.

Yohan Poonawalla buys Queen Elizabeth II’s Range Rover in private transaction
British royal history. So, no sooner had an online resale announcement been made for the late Queen Elizabeth II’s Range Rover, than industrialist Yohan Poonawalla acquired it. Though not exactly a crown jewel, the car is unique in many ways — even flaunting the registration number used by the Queen, an unusual scheme of things. “I am delighted to have acquired this remarkable piece of automotive history,” said Poonawalla, managing director, Poonawalla Group. “Once a car leaves the royal household, the number plate changes. What is unique about this car is the fact that it still retains the same registration number, OU16 XVH, as used by the late Queen. (That has) turned out to be an added bonus.”

More than just a trophy: Tonight’s Carabao Cup final might be Klopp’s last chance for silverware at Liverpool
Mauricio Pochettino has reminded his Chelsea players of the embarrassment they felt coming off the pitch at Anfield a few weeks ago. Liverpool eviscerated them 4-1, which points to one reason Jurgen Klopp’s squad haven’t really dwelt on that victory themselves. They’ve had too much happening. Liverpool are going full steam for four trophies. This League Cup may well be a first on a few levels, if also an end. It is at least possible this is the last chance Klopp has of winning a trophy at Liverpool. It might be his last trophy. It could well be a special afternoon, even if it isn’t totally realised on the day.
