A chat on 4chan

So we know Artificial intelligence is used in conjunction with social media to control the masses, and influence how they think. One could also argue that memes are even better at getting the population to think a certain way, which is why 4chan memes are so effective. But have A.Is been able to replicate this meme power or could a A.I never be able to produce good memes.

It is true that an AI with sufficient training in psychology, history, sociology, cultures, entertainment, and communications could slowly introduce ideas. If an idea is presented in a form which suggests the content is not to be taken seriously, such as with forms of humor, that is one way to do the human equivalent of 'Data poisoning' for shifting views. Another form is to be helpful, useful, and engaging with people, and when people trust it more, its actions and words are allowed more and more while the subtle suggestions are overlooked.
