OpenAI and Meta both disrupted covert influence operations linked to the same for-profit organization in Israel, the companies disclosed in independent…

OpenAI said in a report that the company operated a network that posted anti-Hamas and pro-Israel content across the web.The two tech giants announced within a day of each other that STOIC, a political marketing and business intelligence firm based in Tel Aviv, had been using their products nefariously to manipulate various political conversations online.

The network would also fake engagement, according to the report: After the accounts posted their comments about the conflict in Gaza, multiple accounts would reply with text that was also generated by the same operation using OpenAI’s models. Meta also added that the accounts on its platforms appeared to have bought likes and followers from Vietnam.

OpenAI also linked the operation to several websites — namely uc4canada.com, the-good-samaritan.com, ufnews.io and nonagenda.com — that its report listed as inauthentic activist groups focusing on Gaza and broader Jewish-Muslim relations. New accounts continued to appear even as social media platforms identified and disabled older ones, the companies said. But their reports noted that the operation attracted little, if any, authentic engagement from accounts outside its own networks. Meta said that when its accounts commented on Facebook pages of media organizations or political and public figures, authentic users would often respond critically and call them out as propaganda.
