Misinformation - false information that is spread, regardless of whether there is intent to mislead Disinformation - deliberately misleading or biased information; manipulated narrative or facts; propaganda
While misinformation is spread without malicious intent, disinformation is spread with malicious intent. This means that while misinformation is spread on accident, disinformation is spread on purpose.
Both misinformation and disinformation are a problem on social media. The spread of this false information, can lead to greater distrust among people and can lead to people believing things that are false.
Misinformation is spread by everyone, people might forget exactly what they read and give false information. The information can travel by word of mouth or online on social media. Disinformation is spread in the same way but the people know that they are spreading false information.
AI can be used to make a deep-fake person. With this Ai you can make it seem like someone important or famous says something that they never would say. This can lead to greater distrust and can make people follow something more easily because they do not realize it is a fake. However AI can also be used to detect bots which sometimes spread information.
AI and other programs can be used to make a replica of a person's face and their voice. This means you can make a fake version of a person.
Misinformation is spread by everyone, because they do not realize what they are saying is false or misleading. Disinformation is spread by people who want others to believe something that is false, like Flat Earthers.
Fake news is related to misinformation and disinformation because fake news can be used to spread disinformation and misinformation
