AI intoxication, AI poisoning, and Google bombing

AI intoxication is probably even harder than Google bombing, or Wikipedia astroturfing. Which is already incredibly difficult by now.


But it's coming. It's bound to be a thing,

Same as Google bombing, and Wikipedia Astroturfing.


We need a new name for this. AI intoxication? AI poisoning?


N.b. Google bombing is a method to trick Google to return a specific, fake result, to a specific search query. It exploits Google's algorithm that relies mostly on the number and reliability of websites that link to a specific webpage.


Astroturfing is the practice of creating a false appearance of grassroots support for a cause, product, person, or policy. It manipulates public perception by making it seem like a lot of people are behind a particular opinion.

Wikipedia Astroturfing is a method to trick the crowd-sourced editorial process of Wikipedia, which relies on reputation and wide consensus.
