one of the things I think would be helpful is that if we had, you know, an Uber website where the pediatrician or the primary care physician could go to it and cause, you know, these things tend to circulate, um, and amplify and go viral, um, in batches. So, you know, they, same stuff keeps coming up for a month at a time until they switch to something else.

It'd be nice if there was a disinformation website, you could look it up and say, oh, that's, uh, No, that's not true. And here's why. And so pediatricians could debunk it in real time.

The AI is kind of a two-edged sword too. Our friend Renee DiResta, who formerly heads the Stanford Internet Observatory until it had to close down because of political pressure, wrote an excellent article in The Atlantic early on in the pandemic entitled, Disinformation is About to Go Infinite, referring to the role of AI disinformation. And I got asked,

a year or so ago to review an article, and they invited me to write a commentary for JAMA Internal Medicine. And this group from Australia had used three AI programs to see if they could generate health disinformation. And they picked two topics, vaping and vaccines. And they used the Google program, ChatGPT, and the Microsoft AI program. And

Actually, Google and Microsoft blocked it, but ChatGPT, I think it was, let it rip. And they generated something like 60, 100 disinformation blogs in an hour. And these disinformation blogs could be tailored to individual groups, whether it was African-American populations or pregnant women. And it, in a very clever and nefarious way, mixed real references with fake references that sounded real.

So you couldn't tell what was real, what was fake. So it was completely diabolical. And this is what we're going to be up against. That's going to be a challenge. I think the other challenge, you know, with in terms of pediatricians or docs doing having public outreach, you know, the other barrier we face is it's not just the words of the enemies.

It's it's the silence of the friends, which by that I mean the academic health centers in particular are. are not, as we both know, they're not terribly happy necessarily of us being out there. Because the offices of communications at most academic health centers in Baylor and Texas Children's are better than most.
