Скачать или смотреть AI, Fake News & the Attention Economy

The attention economy explains how platforms reward views, clicks, and watch time, often pushing AI viral content and clickbait over truth. This creates fake news on social media, where tools like Social Blade income accuracy are misunderstood, leading to myths like the YouTube Shorts revenue myth. In reality, AI-generated content doesn’t guarantee money, and much of the hype comes from digital media manipulation, weak viral news fact-checking, and gaps in understanding the creator economy reality. The real issue isn’t AI itself, but online misinformation, Indian media fake news, and the gap between AI hype vs reality when it comes to AI content monetization truth.
