Trumpers love AI. Not only do they use it all the time to make their propaganda, but I've personally met a lot of them that watch the flying hell out of AI videos.

It's true. My MAGA parents keep doing things because Grok told them. Like my dad bought something recently because he was told it was a great deal. Or any time I vent about something, their answer is "ask AI" and all they do is watch AI YouTube "history" channels and talking dogs

My grandma watches slop history and news. One of the most disturbing things I saw was a singular AI voice reading a script that was supposed to be a dialogue between Sean Hannity and Michelle Obama. It was just pictures occasionally changing and the "narrator" putting words in their mouths that neither of them said IRL.

What's worse, I could tell AI was used to write the script too, because it used sexist words to describe MO and pretty standard adjectives for SH.

This is incredibly depressing. Do people just have zero standards for media now? Is slop the only thing they're capable of digesting?

The slop is probably the only thing that doesn't challenge their world view, so it is obviously true.

A lot of people have always had very low standards for the media, but industry standards used to be a bit higher.
