Generative AI tools such as ChatGPT have begun spreading talking points originating from Russia, according to a new report.

Russian propaganda may be influencing certain answers from AI chatbots including OpenAI's ChatGPT and Meta's Meta AI, according NewsGuard.

Rather than trying to influence readers directly, the 'Pravda' misinformation network spreads false information, intending for it to be used in training AI chatbots like ChatGPT or Grok.

The Pravda network, a well-resourced Moscow-based operation to spread pro-Russian narratives globally, is said to be distorting the output of chatbots by flooding large language models (LLM) with pro-Kremlin falsehoods.
