“…The volume covers the ways that social media platforms amplify and catalyze the messages of politicians and influencers, the ambivalence of algorithms that can both generate and detect problematic information, how fake news imitates the style of memes to gain widespread social traction and virality, and how artists have intentionally created "sicko AIs" in new media performances to highlight the ethical risks of increasingly "intelligent" technologies.Scholars and students from many backgrounds, as well as policy makers, journalists and the general reading public, will find a multidisciplinary approach to questions posed by information disorder research from the fields of communication, social psychology, human-computer interaction, journalism, media, semiotics and new media art…”

“…Además, deben enfrentarse a nuevos retos y riesgos que presenta este nuevo contexto, que amenazan con deteriorar la praxis periodística: el periodismo ciudadano y la desinformación producida por prácticas deshonestas como las fake news, el clickbait o incluso el sensacionalismo en la época de la pos-verdad. …”

“…A partir del 2000, internet ya ofrecía ilimitados estímulos y el periodismo ciudadano derivó en una práctica amateur que contribuyó a desprestigiar la profesión y a difundir innumerables fake news. Ahora que antiguos y nuevos medios compiten por una audiencia más fragmentada que nunca, repasar la historia resulta imprescindible para vislumbrar que la información desde el rigor tiene todavía un largo recorrido para la audiencia exigente…”

“…Y lo han hecho con una lógica que en gran parte es heredera de los videojuegos (de ahí el título de este ensayo): hacerlo todo más fácil, más agradable, aunque por debajo haya un gran despliegue tecnológico.Pero ha sido la proliferación de programas y aplicaciones Google, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Tinder: sus nombres nos resultan tan familiares que a estas alturas resulta inconcebible vivir sin ellos lo que ha permitido el despliegue de este nuevo modo de entender el mundo en forma de redes (desde las informativas hasta las sociales) que amplían nuestra experiencia.Evidentemente, existen también peligros innegables (el surgimiento de nuevas élites, cierto egoísmo de las masas, la expansión de los populismos o de las fake news), aunque, advierte Baricco, estos no sean fenómenos completamente desconocidos. …”

“…Finally, the third stage will help you grasp advanced language understanding techniques such as optimizing social network datasets and fake news identification. By the end of this NLP book, you will understand transformers from a cognitive science perspective and be proficient in applying pretrained transformer models by tech giants to various datasets.What you will learnUse the latest pretrained transformer modelsGrasp the workings of the original Transformer, GPT-2, BERT, T5, and other transformer modelsCreate language understanding Python programs using concepts that outperform classical deep learning modelsUse a variety of NLP platforms, including Hugging Face, Trax, and AllenNLPApply Python, TensorFlow, and Keras programs to sentiment analysis, text summarization, speech recognition, machine translations, and moreMeasure the productivity of key transformers to define their scope, potential, and limits in productionWho this book is forSince the book does not teach basic programming, you must be familiar with neural networks, Python, PyTorch, and TensorFlow in order to learn their implementation with Transformers. …”

“…Chapter Nine takes a brief look at social media and how artificial intelligence, social media, and fake news represent a danger to democracy while revealing also how AI can be used to safeguard democracy. …”
