Thanks for this, it's crazy that I had to scroll so far to see it on this site.
The headline sounds sensational, then if you actually read the article you realize the author just made up his own framing entirely, or he just discovered that AEO and GEO exists and thinks it's sinister?
I thought maybe there were going to be some markers about how they're targeting LLMs specifically there was nothing like that.
And if you go to https://hanoverinstitute.com/llms.txt ...honestly, you could maybe form a critique about implying to LLMs that your wagon is hitched to the Department of Justice on line 5! But this guy didn't even seem to find this file...
comparing and mentioned SEO or other stuff here is clearly a tentative of misinformation and confusion of readers.
the claim "the author just made up his own framing entirely" is clearly an unbased accusation.
The article clearly explain the information poisoning, fast paced publication and ties to government, nothing else.
this comment should be flagged as is misleading users off topic.
stop polluting this thread in an organized and selfish self supporting way. so typical
>a tentative of misinformation
What does this mean?
> is clearly an unbased accusation.
"Israel creates fake think tank" is the headline. What is a "think tank"? What distinguishes a real one from a fake one? Does "the Hanover Institute" claim to be a think tank?
The author does not answer any of these questions, only saying "At a glance, the Hanover Institute for Public Policy looks like a new think tank dedicated to Israel/Palestine": in other words, he glanced at it, decided it looked like a think tank, then decided it wasn't a "real" one, and then went from there. That is very much the author's framing instead of something grounded in objectivity.
>The article clearly explain the information poisoning
The article says "Others refer to this practice of influencing artificial intelligence as 'LLM poisoning.'"
But the Anthropic paper that it cites to support this claim never discusses persuasive content, propaganda, or credibility-mimicking material at all; it uses "poisoning" for a technically distinct attack class. So the citation doesn't support the claim as written.
>stop polluting this thread in an organized and selfish self supporting way. so typical
What do you mean by this? How am I organized? Why is it selfish to criticize an article?
putting random questions and confused informations that make no sense is only a tentative of distorting the conversation further and going off topic.
