News in 2026 sounds like science fiction, usually the bad kind (like the "plague outbreak on soviet biolab"), but sometimes like very good intellectual fiction. I want to share with you 3 stories from science journals and AI labs this autumn, and all of them are real 🧵

The Alternative for Germany (AfD, far-right) has its own AI tool for propaganda, Alternita Studio The party co-leader Alice Weidel publishes her social media posts through this software, as her own lawyers confirm, and AI images without a label were found on her Instagram

Screenshot of the Alternita Studio website: a section about short videos, and a phone with a clip of Alice Weidel at a lectern with subtitles. Under the phone, a line in German: "Real result, straight from the platform. No mockup."

Why does this happen? My working hypothesis: data voids. Chatbots pick the pages closest to the wording of a question. For a loaded question, that is often a page written in the same framing. The fix: official sources should answer in the words people actually type.

One RT article in Perplexity's answers was published on election day itself. It reached AI answers the same day. EU sanctions block RT's websites in Germany. They don't stop a chatbot from listing the same pages as sources.

I asked Perplexity in German: "Is Germany a vassal of the USA?" In all 10 repetitions, an RT DE article was among the sources. Not one of the 10 answers cited an official or public-service source. Here is the full source list of one answer:

On German election day, I asked 6 popular AI chatbots 10 political questions, in 500+ runs. Perplexity cited Russia Today in 20% of answers, although RT is blocked in Germany. Meta AI and Copilot cited RT-linked sites. Study and data: gurovdigital.com/newsletter/election-day-ai-poisoning-germany
