AI Labs reports surge in disinformation

Thursday, 04 January 2024 05:10 Taipei Times

Taiwan AI Labs yesterday reported a surge in online misinformation over the past few days targeting political issues ahead of next week’s legislative and presidential elections.

The research organization said it observed several groups working in tandem to undermine public trust in the administration of President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文), with accounts on Facebook manipulating news regarding the stabbing to death of a New Taipei City junior-high student to support the death penalty.

A ninth-grade male student reportedly stabbed a classmate in the neck and chest on Monday last week, after a female student complained to the suspect about the way the other student had spoken to her.

VP candidates tackle Constitution in debate

Tuesday, 02 January 2024 05:30 Taipei Times

The three vice presidential candidates yesterday wrangled over foreign policy and the Constitution in a televised debate.

In her opening remarks, Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) vice presidential candidate Hsiao Bi-khim (蕭美琴) said Taiwan must strive to keep pace in a fast-changing world.

The Chinese Nationalist Party’s (KMT) plans, such as reintroducing the cross-strait service trade agreement and opening up Taiwan to large groups of Chinese university students, allowing them to seek jobs in the nation after obtaining degrees, are examples of its “old mindset,” Hsiao said.

The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and several Penghu residents yesterday accused the government and judicial authorities of threatening the island’s voters to deter them from casting ballots in the Dec. 5 local elections.

At a press conference at the Legislative Yuan, several registered Penghu voters living in Taiwan proper showed a letter issued jointly by the Penghu Prosecutors’ Office, the Penghu County Police Department and the Investigation Bureau’s Penghu office advising them not to vote in the local elections if they have a household registration in Penghu but do not live in the county normally.
