US OFFICIALS MISLABELLED EVERY AFRICAN COUNTRY it named at a conference this week. Top US envoy Jeff Graham showed a slide of a diagram with African nations in random positions, with no relation to reality. The audience at a global conference in Brazil, many of whom were familiar with Africa’s real geography, were stunned by the US State Department presentation. . NATIONS SHIFTED THOUSANDS OF MILES - Nigeria was moved from the coast to the middle of the Sahara desert. - Cameroon was moved in a northeasterly direction. - Mozambique was moved from south-eastern Africa to the northeast part known as the Horn of Africa. - Côte d’Ivoire was moved from west Africa to the eastern coast. After a picture of the presentation was shared in a Substack post by Emily Bass, who works in AIDS prevention, the State Department said: “We take full responsibility for the confusion and misrepresentation it caused for attendees, including our African partners.” The presentation was made at the Aids 2026 conference in Rio de Janeiro earlier this week. . ‘OPENAI USED TO MAKE MAP’ Analysis indicated that staff apparently used OpenAI to make the map, and the program “hallucinated” the countries’ locations instead of looking them up. The result was evidently not checked by actual humans before being released. . PEOPLE AREN'T FACTCHECKING Many analysts fear that the widespread careless use of AI is causing vast amounts of damage to the foundations of human knowledge. Even if 80% to 90% of the generated material is roughly correct, the rest, which consists of outright lies presented as dependable data, can cause immense harm, they warn. If professional politicians and mainstream journalists aren't factchecking, the public definitely won't either. . GLOBAL CALL FOR AI CO-OPERATION At the 2026 World AI Conference last week in Shanghai, China, delegates from more than 100 countries and international organisations discussed these issue. While there was widespread agreement that it was imperative for countries to co-operate to head off potential AI-caused disasters, there was also concern about the hostile, uncooperative attitudes of some western nations. . .


In Singapore they’re actually debating whether the government’s insistence on politicians being too clean might keep capable people out of politics. They’re living in parallel universe tbh
