This week I facilitated the project Disinformation impact assessment @ UvA @digitalmethods initiative. We applied the Misinformation amplification factor to coordinated content retrieved by CooRnet. So proud to have supported and collaborated with such amazing colleagues!

Today @Gi_hades presented this. We collected all the links shared in Facebook during the 2018 and 2022 campaigns and then used chatgpt to identify the "political news" and *cluster" those into thematic communities. Here you can explore the result for 2018
@Gi_hades is set to unveil our latest research, employing a novel #AI powered workflow designed to detect, classify, and label corresponding political narratives, thereby quantifying their reach on social media. Explore our data at https://t.co/vyfSwoxh4y

Find out about the @uniurbit/@mine_smd team active in vera:ai, namely @fabiogiglietto @Gi_hades & @MincigrucciR, what they work on (e.g. coordinated sharing behavior) and what keeps them awake at night. "Seeing our work reused by others" makes them happy!

Hi @elonmusk, we've utilized https://t.co/bo6QpiszXh to map coordinated Twitter accounts (N=446) which co-shared links (min_repetition>=129) flagged as problematic by Meta's 3rd-party fact-checkers, within a 10-sec window. For more details, DM us @veraai_eu

We have just released version 1.7.0 of #CooRnet, which includes an auto-labeling feature that relies on the #OpenAI API to provide a short description of the coordinated networks detected > https://t.co/ZNDHrjgOYw
