Artificial intelligence is changing the way we create and evaluate information, and this is happening during an infodemic, which has been having dramatic effects on global health. In this paper we evaluate whether recruited individuals can distinguish disinformation from accurate information, structured in the form of tweets, and determine whether a tweet is organic or synthetic, i.e., whether it has been written by a Twitter user or by the AI model GPT-3. Our results show that GPT-3 is a double-edge sword, which, in comparison with humans, can produce accurate information that is easier to understand, but can also produce more compelling disinformation. We also show that humans cannot distinguish tweets generated by GPT-3 and real Twitter users. Starting from our results, we reflect on the dangers of AI for disinformation, and on how we can improve information campaigns to benefit global health.

本文评估了招募个体是否能够区分由GPT-3生成的虚假信息和真实信息，结论显示GPT-3可以产生更准确易懂的信息，但也能产生更具说服力的虚假信息，人类无法区分某条tweet是由GPT-3还是人类编写。我们从结果中反思了人工智能在虚假信息中的危险性，并探讨了如何提高信息传播来服务于全球健康。
