Be Ever So Careful. AI is Well.....I Will Explain

 I was sent some information on Thursday from a source that, I normally trust, and still do. 

Had a link that I clicked on to what I thought was a government site. And it looked like a government site.  

It was not. 

I think I and 3 other sources of mine were being " set-up" by well, not sure who they are. 

I caught it before I wrote a blog, as did my normally reliable source and within the hour I discovered the ruse, all other sources also realized what had happened. 

The AI was so good, so good, I am going to need to run material I receive through an AI app to see if it is now real or not. 

I was upset with myself that I was fooled. And did not feel so bad when an expert whom I know very well told me that they too sometimes have a hard time seeing the real from the AI. 

And they told me, " It is going to get worse." 

They are doing background research and told me, they will figure out who it came from....It may take a few days, or weeks. ( This is one of the benefits of sending your "kids" to fancy graduate schools Carnegie Mellon and the University of Texas.)  

I am going to have to follow more of the ancient Greek Euripides, " Question Everything." Especially in this day of AI.
