Racists on the notorious troll site 4chan are using a powerful new and free AI-powered image generator service offered by Microsoft to create antisemitic propaganda, according to posts reviewed by Bellingcat.

Users of 4chan, which has frequently hosted hate speech and played home to posts by mass shooters, tasked Bing Image Creator to create photo-realistic antisemitic caricatures of Jews and, in recent days, shared images created by the platform depicting Orthodox men preparing to eat a baby, carrying migrants across the US border (the latter a nod to the racist Great Replacement conspiracy theory), and committing the 9/11 attacks.

Meanwhile, users on multiple forums associated with the far right are sharing strategies to avoid the tech giant’s lax content moderation to create more racist material.

The framing is disingenuous, not that I'm protecting 4chan, but shooters used all sorts of internet platforms, some of them home to the livestreaming of the events. Being so disingenuous with context on every sentance makes the article itself sound like propaganda.

information warfare certainly becomes more complex as AI advances.
