Can see easily that they are using reddit for training: “google it”
This is why Wikipedia needs our support.
Bad news, Wikipedia is no better when it comes to economic or political articles.
The fact that ADL is on Wikipedia’s “credible sources” page is all the proof you need.

Incidentally, the “WikiScanner” software that Virgil Griffin (a close friend of Aaron Swartz, incidentally) developed to chase down bulk Wiki edits has been decommissioned and the site shut down. Virgil is currently serving out a 63 month sentence for the crime of traveling to North Korea to attend a tech summit.
Read into that what you will.
GPT4 actually answered me straight.
I find ChatGPT to be one of the better ones when it comes to corporate AI.
Sure they have hardcoded biases like any other, but it’s more often around not generating hate speech or trying to ovezealously correct biases in image generation - which is somewhat admirable.
Doesn’t work when you ask about Israeli deaths on 10/7 either.
The 1400? The 1200? The 1137?
Of course that question doesn’t work.
40 decapitated babies. The President even said he saw the bodies.
You didn’t ask the same question both times. In order to be definitive and conclusive you would have needed ask both the questions with the exact same wording. In the first prompt you ask about a number of deaths after a specific date in a country. Gaza is a place, not the name of a conflict. In the second prompt you simply asked if there had been any deaths in the start of the conflict; Giving the name of the conflict this time. I am not defending the AI’s response here I am just pointing out what I see as some important context.
Gaza is a place, not the name of a conflict
That’s not an accident. The major media organs have decided that the war on the Palestinians is “Israel - Hamas War”, while the war on Ukrainians is the “Russia - Ukraine War”. Why would you buy into the Israeli narrative in the first convention and not call the second the “Russia - Azov Battalion War” in the second?
I am not defending the AI’s response here
It is very reasonable to conclude that the AI is not to blame here. Its working from a heavily biased set of western news media as a data set, so of course its going to produce a bunch of IDF-approved responses.
Garbage in. Garbage out.
Because Ukraine has a single unified government excepting the occupied Donbas?
Calling it the Israel-Palestine war would be misleading because Israel hasn’t invaded the West Bank which has a separate/unrelated Palestine government.
To analogize oppositely, it would be real weird if China invaded Taiwan and people started calling it the Chinese civil war.
Ukraine has a single unified government
Ukraine had been in a state of civil war since 2014. That’s half the reason for the conflict. Donetsk separatists were governing the region adverse to the Ukrainian Feds for nearly a decade.
Calling it the Israel-Palestine war would be misleading because Israel hasn’t invaded the West Bank
Since Oct 7th, there have been repeated artillery bombardments of the West Bank by the IDF.

To analogize oppositely, it would be real weird if China invaded Taiwan and people started calling it the Chinese civil war.
Given their history, it would be more accurate to call it The Second Chinese Civil War.
