Marcus Bösch (TH Köln) examines how AI-generated content on platforms like TikTok blurs the line between harmless humour and far-right affect. He develops the concept of \"postdigital propaganda\", where political alignment arises less from messages than from the algorithmically governed platform environment. The talk asks what analysis, regulation, and critique can mean once propaganda is less a discrete campaign than a condition of the platform environment.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/berlin/events/scripts-forum-2026-autumn-lecture-series-3-it-feels-harmless-94420/", "official_url": "https://www.geschkult.fu-berlin.de/e/oas/sinologie/institut/termine/Termine-2026/SCRIPTS-12-11-2026.html", "image": "", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-12T14:15:00+01:00", "end": "2026-11-12T15:45:00+01:00", "place": "FB Geschichts- und Kulturwissenschaften", "address": "Koserstraße 20, 14195 Berlin", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "KI, Narrative und die Konstruktion von Wirklichkeit", "start": "2026-11-03T18:30:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "Leibniz-Zentrum für Literatur- und Kulturforschung, Eberhard-Lämmert-Saal", "address": "Eingang Meierottostr. 8, 10719 Berlin", "price": "Der Eintritt ist frei, eine Anmeldung ist erforderlich", "price_from": "0.00", "price_to": "0.00", "category": "talks-readings", "tags": ["science/ai"], "description": "A panel discussion on how artificial intelligence is changing the narratives with which societies understand themselves, and which worldviews AI makes visible, reinforces, or makes disappear.
