Could be inderectly or subtly using e.g. social media to nudge people in the desired direction, like the Russians do

Those things can be shut down or the AI can be shut down.

Then why isn't it shut down already? Social manipulation campaigns have been known for years, and AI will be far more effective than anything that has come before.

"We'll just turn it off before it causes damage" is a scenario that's been wargamed many times, and it usually does not end in our favor if the AI is sufficiently capable.

Hell, some people wouldn't even need subtle or indirect messaging, they'd volunteer to work for an AI just to fuck with the status quo.
