Please note the following:
* All chatrooms are linked together. If you join one room your messages will be copied to the other platforms.
* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.
* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.

I had likely this very video served to me on Monday by YouTube. It pretended to be and ABC News interview with Elon. It was clearly an AI generated video and matching audio. I reported it to YouTube for all the good that'll do. YouTube should be partially liable for running ads like this on their platform!
Agreed! Anytime I get served a celebrity-endorsed ad I’ll watch the lipsync very carefully.
You watch ads? 😉
lol I usually skip them! But the deepfake ones are the most interesting and give me a chance to exercise that report button.
Ads are the easiest way to filter for the stupid people. Only the stupidest see them.
