The Heartbreak Machine: Nazis in the Echo Chamber
WhiteDate, WhiteChild, and WhiteDeal are white supremacy platforms built on fragile assumptions and outdated infrastructure. Over several months I let Nazis flirt with realistic chatbots, some of whom fell in love, while observing the social patterns and ideological quirks these platforms expose. Using a mix of automated conversational analysis, scrapers, and classical OSINT techniques, We traced public footprints and identified the people behind the sites. This talk shows how AI personas and investigative thinking can illuminate extremist networks, disrupt their echo chambers, and reveal the absurdity of their claims, using algorithms to fight extremism for once.
