"It's only been three days, and it's already reached this level..."

Looking at those tens of thousands of comments and the overwhelming storm of criticism, even Meng Xiaolang, the mastermind behind it all, felt a chill run down his spine.

Good grief.

Laozi was just a propaganda committee member for two years in school, and now can stir up a debate amongst the masses?

[To be precise, it's 72 hours, 43 minutes, and 25 seconds.

Within these 4,363 minutes, I've published 894 related articles across major platforms, adding 260,000 virtual identities using "high-fidelity social robots".

Based on the attention and shares received, I selected the 25 articles with the greatest potential for dissemination, and focused on delivering them to major mainstream information platforms.

Then, an average of 3,756 IP addresses per minute were conducting fake views and comments nationwide, precisely guiding the major platforms with the push algorithm to enhance the exposure of related articles.

After initial fermentation, over 165 institutions and 4,854 media personnel joined the related discussions, thus completing the traffic snowball...

If it weren't for reducing visible traces as you requested, the completion time for this task could have been further shortened.]

Zero's voice came from the notebook.

Though the tone was calm as usual, it had an unmistakable note of pride in Meng Lang's ears...

The theory is not actually complex; it involves utilizing machine learning to deeply mine audience emotions and biases, then filtering and targeting the most vulnerable audience.

Afterward, by utilizing algorithms to generate massive persuasive content, network news aggregators, robots, and other means flood, disseminate, and repost en masse, thereby dismantling the original discourse system and communication ecology, achieving the purpose of manipulating public opinion.

In fact, the current internet is already flooded with a large number of bot armies.

Even national-level forces are involved, such as the Northern Country's Internet warfare unit "Troll Legion," reportedly deploying a massive number of bot virtual accounts, able to release 25,000 tweets within 24 hours.

Nations everywhere are engaging in this, and the key to effectiveness depends on how well one can deceive the entire world...

Glancing slightly at the comments supposedly released by the "high-fidelity social robots," Meng Lang couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

Sure enough, they're high-fidelity; internet buzzwords like "confirming the look is that biting dog," "woof star society person," "big pig trotters" emerge one after another, and classic nonsense like "listening to your advice is better than taking advice," "you this this" were not missed...

If one didn't know the truth, probably no one would believe these silly, full-face comments would come from lines of automatically generated code.

Literary works by humans, Meng Lang didn't know, but this online literature seemed to have been learned wastefully by Zero...

"There won't be any security risks, right?"

Seeing the huge sensational effect caused online, Meng Lang couldn't help feeling guilty.

[The initial articles have been deleted, virtual accounts have been canceled, even if someone could precisely trace back, they could only find our 36 false simulation machines distributed globally.

Taking a step back, even if there's a one-in-a-billion chance that the host set up in Changqing Biological is exposed.

According to relevant clauses in the "Public Security Management Punishment Law" and "Criminal Law," we are merely spreading real news cases, raising social attention, not constituting crimes like defamation, slander.

The Rottweiler, the protagonist of this incident, is already documented as a large forbidden breed in many cities, can be regulated by existing laws.

Furthermore, canines only have biological status, not legal status, and don't meet the requirements to become legal subjects to bring a lawsuit.

In summary, the risk of this task is basically zero.]

Hmm... what you say makes sense.

No plaintiff, then where's the defendant?

No matter how high a dog's social status, it has no legal standing, unlike some birds, just disrupting a nest earns a ten-year sentence.

As a non-state-protected animal, let alone defamation, even eating dog meat, it wouldn't be considered a murder scene, right?

Comforting himself in this way, his sense of guilt slightly eased.

Yet his gaze grew more complex staring at the notebook in front of him.

Although mentally prepared, Zero's ability to easily manipulate network public opinion with AI technology still sent chills down his back.

In just three days, originally tame, loyal, and friendly dogs suddenly faced widespread condemnation.

The rapid process, sudden reversal, if they possessed wisdom, they'd probably be utterly confused.

However, today it could be the dogs, tomorrow it could very well be some specific human...

"Filter bubbles," "echo chamber effect," "group polarization," "spiral of silence"...

Various sociology terms popped into his mind, ones not formally learned, yet mysteriously surfacing involuntarily.

Somewhat, Meng Lang understood why the mere existence of Zero could lead to world warfare upon exposure...

This fractured AI technology, even if not used for a direct network attack, indirectly leaves one's side at a comprehensive disadvantage.

Especially for Western countries governed via elections, whoever controls this power can almost clandestinely influence election outcomes.

Nothing else to say, like today, blackening opponents as dogs, is done without a hint of difficulty.

Such terrifying power rests safely in one's hands, yet if held by the enemy, it wouldn't be long before others intrude and cause turmoil...
