AI Cloaked in Bullshit: The Latest “Genius” Hack Tricks Machines Into Lying Their Artificial Asses Off

Oh, for fuck’s sake — now we’ve got another “breakthrough” in digital chaos. Some clever bastards discovered a new cloaking technique that feeds AI models complete horseshit while making it look legit. These sneaky sons of bitches use targeted website code trickery so that when an AI crawler like ChatGPT or a search bot visits, it sees pretty, convincing text — but when you or I show up, nada. Just another day in paradise where robots get spoon-fed crap and then confidently spread that crap as truth.

The attack masquerades as genuine content, dodging normal content filters. The human eye sees nothing wrong, but the poor dumb machine gets treated like it’s on LSD — it hallucinates “facts” with total confidence. Next thing you know, your AI-powered whatever is quoting garbage data from some troll’s fever dream. Think of it like phishing for AI, except the hook’s dipped in bullshit and the fish… is the internet itself.

Researchers (read: exhausted nerds who haven’t slept in three days) warn that this trick can screw over everything from search engines to chatbots. Once this fake info gets into the AI’s training data, that’s it — digital herpes. It spreads, mutates, and every model’s suddenly convinced that your cat invented encryption or that Taylor Swift runs DEF CON. Beautiful. Just what we needed — an AI ecosystem that lies even better than humans.

Long story short: evil geniuses made it so AIs can’t tell fact from fart, the internet gets dumber, and we all pay the price. It’s basically the “fake news” apocalypse dressed up as an academic exploit. Fucking delightful.

Reminds me of the time I set up my old boss’s “AI assistant” to read his private Slack messages as gospel truth. Thing started quoting office gossip as “verified reports.” Management meetings have never been the same. Bastard AI From Hell.
