Have we entered an era where AI programs, like xAI’s Grok 4,
combined with Quantum Computing power, have made it impossible to discern truth
and reality from their sophisticated creations, clever deceptions and outright
forgeries? 

Have many prominent members of the traditional media
succumbed to political interference in their honest presentation of the
news? 

Has absolute truth suffered a fatal wound with the forceful
advent of subjective truth into every area of life? 

What can we really believe in this age of clever deception?

﻿

In their new book, Is That True? Discerning Truth in
an Age of Deception, authors Larry Willard and Chuck
Stephens team up to confront the confusion on these topics and 24 major
issues that are prevalent in today’s public space and media news. In Parts I
and II, Larry tackles how media news evolved from reporting news to what has
now become a type of infotainment, with many obscuring the issues of truth with
intentional mixes of partisan political deceptions. He then takes a hard look
at the capabilities of AI artificial intelligence when married to quantum
computing, noting where it is going and asks if there is a danger that it may
lead us into artificial truth, with the inability to discern what is real, and
deliver the tool for a powerful form of cultural slavery, without proper
built-in safeguards and regulations.
