JUN 25, 2023
PREDICTION BY
Tiffany Hsu“AI-generated misinformation will define the 2024 election cycle in a way that makes 2016 look quaint.”
FOLLOW-UP
Hsu's pre-2024 warning. Deepfakes did appear (Biden robocall, fake Trump arrest images), but feared mass election-deciding wave didn't materialize — platform guardrails + media literacy held better than expected.
RECEIPT #ALEX-K
DEC 23, 2024
PREDICTION BY
Alex Kantrowitz“TikTok Stays... To me, the most likely scenario, is Trump finds a way to get the government to accept that TikTok has fulfilled its divestment obligations by walling off U.S. data (pay attention to TikTok’s U.S. Distributed Service unit) and the app stays on U.S. app stores.”
FOLLOW-UP
TikTok did not stay in the U.S. solely by walling off U.S. data, as courts rejected this measure. Instead, a qualified divestiture was mandated and is in progress via a joint venture with majority U.S. ownership, as evidenced by Executive Order 14310 and the Supreme Court upholding the law without data-wall exceptions.
