A Chinese group used OpenAI technology to discredit Fukushima water drainage

OpenAI, the developer of the artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT, released a report Thursday saying a China-based group had used its technology for social media posts and other activities to try to influence public opinion about treated water releases from the crippled Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant.

โ€œA pair of articles published in late 2023 in English, Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Russian accused Japan of polluting the waters of the Pacific Ocean with discharges from the Fukushima nuclear power plant โ€“ a long-running theme of Chinese IO (influence operations) ,โ€ the report said.

China and Japan are at odds over the discharge of treated water from the plant into the Pacific Ocean that began last August, with Beijing imposing a ban on seafood imports from Japan after multiple spills of the water.
