That all sounds highly plausible, and not just for Gemini. I've experimented a bit with Microsoft's rival AI chatbot, called "Copilot". I gave it a simple test: From several facts about a famous baseball player, could it tell me the player's name? It flunked badly. And each time that I corrected its wrong guesses, it responded with the same kind of smarmy apology that Gemini made to Mickey Kaus. Note that there was nothing political about my query. (The answer was "Todd Helton", who probably isn't on an AI black list.) Copilot was simply incompetent. I doubt that Gemini is any better.
Even if these programs had no ideological bias, it's obvious to me that they are useful only for entertainment, and laughing as virtual clowns slip on intellectual banana peels will probably grow stale after a while.
Artificial Intelligence..........is neither. There is nothing artificial about this man-made, socially engineered propaganda, and intelligence implies that established proven truths provide the foundation for the information, which no such fact elements exist.
Great post. A programmed, slanted response to a good Kaus. Jim Dueholm

God help us.

Yikes. This system is so obviously messed up that I hope even lefties will reject it.
We are facing a dark and dystopian future.
