Japan Proposes Public Shaming Instead of Criminal Prosecution as a Way of Fighting AI Misinformation Abuse

  1. It might work for them though compared to us Westerners as their culture is more shame-based than guilt-based.

  2. I think a sense of shame is something a lot of terrible people lack these days. You’ve gotta make the consequences real if you want them to feel punished.

  3. There’s a joke in Big Bang Theory where Sheldon says something about publicly flogging a few senior citizens who don’t understand technology, to get the rest of them to learn it. It’s like the one joke that stuck with me from the few seasons of that show I watched.

    Public shaming might be the right way fight AI misinformation. Especially because Japan has a very group oriented culture. If you tried this in the US, people would just agree with you, and say the government has been corrupted by making you publicly spread their lies. Because in the US, culturally, we encourage ignorance and people are proud to not read.

  4. Narcissists, sociopaths and psychopaths are immune to shaming.

  5. Go ahead and try it—Trump will become your president

  6. I’m all for it, humiliate people and make it come up when you search their name for telling lies.

  7. Public shaming? In Japan?

    That’s harsher than the death penalty

  8. Public humiliation in Japan is pretty brutal so it just might work because that person will be ostracized and depending on occupation can lose job.

  9. “Shaaaame…” 🫵🏽🤨 “SHAAAAAAAAAAME!!” 🫵🏽🤨

  10. Using public shaming instead of criminal prosecution for misinformation could encourage accountability, but it risks unfairly damaging reputations and being misused. It’s a tricky balance between combating harm and protecting individual rights.

  11. Hasn’t worked on Republicans yet, not going to start working now

  12. That won’t work. Continue the crim prosecution but skip the fines. Fines don’t work if you have a ritch backer.

  13. Shame only works if they care, and companies only care about money. That is the whole point of companies

    So it boils down to play a PR/marketing game against companies. What is preventing them to use more faked news to fight you?

    You name them. They call it a conspiracy or political persecution. They shame you back. There are lots of moves they can play. Just look at what happened in the US.
