Fact check: How to cut through Epstein files disinformation

Just having the documents doesn't mean you can search them immediately. You have to make them machine-readable first. Even though these are now public records, it does not mean they are verified, true or accurate. A name appearing in a document does not, by itself, establish involvement in criminal activity. Each reference must be examined in full context.

Five ways to spot when a paper is a fraud

A growing number of AI tools can detect fraudulent elements in papers, but they can be expensive to use. Such tools are probably better deployed by journal publishers rather than individual reviewers, says Elisabeth Bik, a science-integrity consultant in San Francisco, California, especially because feeding unpublished content into AI tools can compromise confidentiality and is generally frowned on during peer review.

How Fake AI Influencers Generate Real Cash

Beauty and fashion influencer Eni Popoola first learned she'd been deepfaked the way many creators do: from her audience. A YouTube ad sent by a follower featured her face and her voice, promoting an online course she had never heard of. "People were sending screenshots saying, 'Hey, there's this video of you, and we obviously know it's not you, because this is not something that you would talk about,'" Popoola said. She's far from alone, as the experience of finding one's AI doppelganger - promoting unknown supplements, self-help content or beauty products - is becoming increasingly commonplace in the creator economy.

That clip, which amassed over 142,000 views on X over 48 hours, was created using Seedance 2.0, an AI video generation model that ByteDance debuted last week. The tool created a buzz on social media, where one user made a hyperrealistic AI video of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt fighting over Jeffrey Epstein.

Google says the update improved quality. It aimed to reduce the presence of clickbait and low-value content while surfacing more in-depth, original, and timely material from sites with demonstrated expertise. Some published reports speculated that the update devalued AI-generated content, yet Google's concern is probably not artificial intelligence per se. Rather, it is scaled, thin, or risky AI-generated content that degrades trust.

In an earnings call on Wednesday, Zuckerberg reiterated his belief that AI will become the next big media format, making feeds "more immersive and interactive:" We started with text, and then moved to photos when we got phones with cameras, and then moved to video when mobile networks got fast enough. Soon, we'll see an explosion of new media formats that are more immersive and interactive, and only possible because of advances in AI.

B2B marketing in 2026: subtle celebrity, empowered employees, and immersive experiences

Celebrity has long been a staple of B2C advertising, but in B2B, it's historically been treated as nothing more than a huge flex. Too often, an A-list name signals budget more than insight. When it's misaligned, the backlash can outweigh the buzz. Look no further than the ire Salesforce received in 2023 for paying Matthew McConaughey millions while simultaneously laying off thousands of employees.
