Twitter AI Reportedly Flagged ‘MyPillow’ and ‘Trump 2024’ as ‘Misinformation’

Twitter has been a hotspot for revelations of politically-motivated censorship recently with the various “Twitter Files” releases. Social media analyst and commentator Kristen Ruby also released the “Ruby Files” on Dec. 12, providing screenshots of the many terms Twitter artificial intelligence (AI) flagged as “political misinformation.” As you might have guessed from the way Twitter suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop scandal, a lot of the flagged terms indicate a wacky leftist bias, including against “MyPillow” and “Trump 2024.”

Ruby, president of PR agency Ruby Media Group, tweeted, “I have obtained exclusive access to documents that have never been publicly revealed.“ She added that “the public has a right to this information” but said the information wasn’t given to her by Twitter. Instead, she cited an anonymous “direct source.” The screenshots she said were terms flagged as “political misinformation” by Twitter AI included many variations on “election,” “cheat,” and “voter fraud,” including the combination “electionfraud and trump2024.” Another series of “misinformation” terms included “partisan_media.”

Many words were flagged as “misinformation” only in combination with other terms, including “mypillow’.” I guess it’s not the best night’s sleep of your life?
