Really good points, thanks so much.

This feels like the new frontier for "journalism": can we easily verify it?

That feels like a step in the right direction, regardless of how it happens.

People like Steve Bannon know this, and have called what you describe "flooding the zone" and it works. Our brains can't process excess information so we search for simple answers. AI will make this exponentially more effective as a tactic for spreading narratives.
