摘要

台湾是言论自由指数最高的地区之一,同时由于与中国的争议历史,台湾也是受到外国干涉最多的地区。由于大量错误信息的涌入,台湾采取了公共众包的方式,利用事实核查聊天机器人(ChatBots)和名为 CoFacts 的公共数据集来打击错误信息。结合 CoFacts 和大型语言模型(LLM),我们调查了 2024 年台湾总统选举期间三个平台(Line、PTT 和 Facebook)上的错误信息。我们发现,大多数不实信息出现在对华友好的政治团体中,并通过图片和视频等视觉媒体攻击美台关系。相当一部分错误信息并不直接质疑美国的外交政策。相反,它夸大了美国的国内问题,以制造美国国家能力下降的感觉。奇怪的是,我们发现有一些虚假信息提到了西方的阴谋组织。

US-skepticism and transnational conspiracy in the 2024 Taiwanese presidential election
Taiwan has one of the highest freedom of speech indexes while it also encounters the largest amount of foreign interference due to its contentious history with China. Because of the large influx of misinformation, Taiwan has taken a public crowdsourcing approach to combatting misinformation, using both fact-checking ChatBots and public dataset called CoFacts. Combining CoFacts with large-language models (LLM), we investigated misinformation across three platforms (Line, PTT, and Facebook) during the 2024 Taiwanese presidential elections. We found that most misinformation appears within China-friendly political groups and attacks US-Taiwan relations through visual media like images and videos. A considerable proportion of misinformation does not question U.S. foreign policy directly. Rather, it exaggerates domestic issues in the United States to create a sense of declining U.S. state capacity. Curiously, we found misinformation rhetoric that references conspiracy groups in the West.
