Have you ever realised with “delay” that the information you were receiving had been produced using artificial intelligence? A press article? An answering service? An image on social networks?
How did this make you feel? What reaction did you have? What effect did it have on your relationship with this information?

What a surprise it was when, without realising it, I installed an AI assistant in my Teams online meeting software. It seemed that I had subconsciously made a small adjustment and now a robot was systematically joining all my online meetings! It was even connecting 10 minutes in advance! This made me break out in a cold sweat: was a participant starting the meeting earlier than planned? Or was it me who was late? After a bit of research, I found a way of disabling this intrusive robot… so that I could stay connected just between humans….
Social networks are being crowded with AI generated images and videos, and certain pages I follow try to warn people of this phenomenon. At a certain point, the warning regarded videos displaying sea animals, like otters, covered by small shells. It looks as if the animal is parasitized. Eventually, a human being helps the animal and at the end, the animal is clean creating in the viewer a feeling of relief. Well, even though I had been warned, I came across a such video and couldn’t stop watching it, realizing only at the end that it had been AI generated (AI-generated humans are more easy to spot). Nothing amazing at this point, I’ve just had lost 1 min. of my life. But I had this strange feeling of having been manipulated, stupid of not having recognized the trick, and a bit scared (either by my own lack of vigilance, or AI’s power of tricking you, or both).
