The paper "Industrialized Deception: The Collateral Effects of LLM-Generated Misinformation on Digital Ecosystems" updates the 2024 survey on generative AI and misinformation, shifting from a literature review to practical countermeasures. It documents changes in the threat landscape, noting that Large Language Models and multimodal systems have improved AI-generated content, thereby worsening information quality. The authors introduce JudgeGPT, a platform for assessing human perception of AI-generated news, and RogueGPT, a controlled stimulus generation engine, forming an experimental pipeline to study detection and mitigation strategies, including LLM-based detection and inoculation approaches.
The paper introduces JudgeGPT and RogueGPT, a dual‑axis framework that separates authenticity from attribution to study how people detect hallucinations and disinformation from foundation models. Using 918 evaluations on five models, including GPT‑4 and Llama‑2, the authors apply Structural Causal Models to test causal hypotheses about detection accuracy. Results show political orientation has little effect, while familiarity with fake news mediates detection, and a "fluency trap" in GPT‑4 outputs makes them hard to distinguish from human text, implying pre‑bunking should focus on cognitive source monitoring.

CogniDir is an adaptive distributional learning framework designed to improve fake news detection against new psychologically grounded malicious comments generated by Large Language Models. It reframes robust detection as a dynamic data mixture optimization problem, using cognitive psychology to formalize adversarial paradigms and an information‑theoretic score to guide adaptive sampling of training data. Experiments on three benchmarks show that CogniDir achieves state‑of‑the‑art robustness, boosting F1 scores by up to 17.9% over existing baselines under heterogeneous AI‑generated attacks.
