Of course I bet the party in power wants to dictate what they consider "fake."

I have doubts we will ever find alien life by listening for them. There's just so much space... what's the chance we'll be listening at the right time, in the right place, on the right communications system?

Pretty much the same story in India. Leave alone fringe elements, things supporting mainstream opposition or questioning the dear leader (modi) or his favourite industrialist (adani) get called fake news and banned or attacked. Some of you might have heard of the bbc documentary on modi's genocidal politics and the Hindenburg report on adani's corruption which came out recently. Both are western propaganda to bring down resurgent india, according to the government. BBC documentary is banned and news agencies are busy equating adani with india and calling for action against Indian journalists and opposition who have been crying hoarse against adani's crony capitalism long before Hindenburg report. Government agencies including market regulators are threatening short sellers without so much as pretending to investigate the Hindenburg accusations, as adani stock tumbles.

The last line is being extremely optimistic. If you think about it, the universe is probably a dark forest, and if we find a signal, we should only study it; and find the origin. Then, wait and watch for a very long time. We don’t want to find out the hard way that broadcasting a powerful signal that can be detected light years from the source is suicidal. There is a very high likelihood that there are other species out there that are much more advanced than us and we need to be damn sure that the universe is more like Star Trek and not a shooting gallery.

yeah I mean personally I think a few false positives are better than having it miss something

I’m not even remotely an expert in AI or radio-astronomy, but I’d imagine the AI returned results, the researchers investigated the results, and then verified the unlikelihood of the results to be what they’d hoped, indicating a misalignment between what the researchers intended the AI to find and what it actually found. The model may simply need tuning, more or less.

So our ai decides to start a chat with alien ai?

extraterrestrial reddit mods are here to ban our shit

lol, the US happily let Donald fucking Trump of all people become the literal president we're not going to do shit for Nigeria

The aliens have bots that disguise as interference

Real signal is found when you identify and decrypt the fake interference

Hidden in plain sight

Eerily similar to another large first world nation that had tech giants control the flow of information. Interesting

I always believe Nigerian princes.

They won’t. Fake news make money for shareholders.

So when the aliens arrive, the AIs will tell them not to bother with us and deal with them directly

"Signal #7 will ASTOUND you!!!..."

Yeah my cat went nuts on the keyboard recently and I'm now noticing strange lights outside our windows at night.

I have a hunch.

I think these are connected.

You’re all just AI now as far as I’m concerned.

I don’t know, but those are awesome clouds

They will most certainly curb anything not in their favor
